lyrics

I’d rather go, I’d rather go to the dentist today. I wanna know how far I’d go to avoid that old familiar low.
No novocain to numb the pain. Well I’ll take it in place of more of the same. So yank my teeth, won’t hear a peep. In fact it would be a sweet relief.
Ah ………
I’d rather be, I’d rather be on a chain gang today. I’ll break my back beneath the sun. Safety in rhythm, I fear the work be done.
I’d rather clean, I’d rather clean fifty toilets on my knees. Those bowls would shine, lose track of time, and at least my mind would be mine.
Ah ………
