lyrics

Billy
Now ya done me in
Thought we agreed
You would never set the cat on fire again

Billy
When your folks get home
They’re gonna beat your little ass
And next time they go out they’ll probably leave you with

Joan, Who has the food stuck in her braces all the time
Eddie, who breaks all your toys
Sarah, who detests you
Or Vinnie, who molests you
But no matter who it is, it won’t be me
You’re gonna be a sorry boy

Billy
Stop biting me
It’s time to go to bed now
I can’t let you watch any more TV

Billy
Don’t piss on the rug
I know you have no idea what “infanticide” means
But it’s crossing my mind now and all I can do is

Shrug my shoulders and thank god your parents pay me well
Even though I can’t maintain control
If I’m your favorite babysitter
Why must you play cat to my kitty litter?
I swear to god, kiddo
Sometimes I just wanna drop you in a hole.
