first shot, right in the rough he's thin, but he's tough no ordinary... hook, snare, buyer beware it's all in the stare he'll eat you up... I'm a visionary and I would rather walk than run could I be your maybe if not your number one? two fold, covered in mold he's weird and he's old no ordinary... shotgun wedding such fun we'll run and we'll run they'll never find us... I'm a visionary and I would rather walk than run could I be your maybe if not your number one? hold me sisters and hold me brothers squeeze, squeeze, squeeze hallelujah, cried the angels got down on their knees first shot, right through the heart doomed from the start no ordinary... what's more, I sleep on the floor I cry till I snore I'll eat you up... I'm a visionary and I would rather walk than run could I be your maybe if not your number one?
