Lyrics for Fly On the Wall

That damned fly I told you about is keeping me up again I'm tired as shit Everyday at my job Because his buzzing keeps me from dreaming. And I can never get any rest I can never get any rest I can never get any rest Sure I'll have another drink with you Though I'm already drunk as a bottle It's that fly that's making me drink So I'll pass out And sleep through his screaming And I can never get any rest I can never get any rest I will never get any rest Back in that room That's not mine anymore It's possessed by the drone of a monster Goddamned fly I told you about The moon shines on his wings And they're gleaming And I can never get any rest I can never get any rest I can never get any rest etc...
