Can you explain to me how
You're so evil, how?
It's too late for me now
There's a hole in the earth (hole in the earth)
I'm out

There's a hole in the earth 
(I'm out)

Can you explain to me now
If you're still able (whilst)
I think you know the truth
There's a hole in the earth
I'm out

There's a hole in the earth
There's a hole in the earth

I hate all of my friends
They all accept our time
There's a hole in the earth 

Let's think about
This is the end
Somewhere
This is the end
Somewhere

There's a hole in the earth (a hole in the earth)
There's a hole in the earth (a hole in the earth)
There's a hole in the earth
