lyrics

Marriage, previous to The Cause, was awful awful
There's a cycle like life
Birth, excitement, growth, and decay
Death now, now how about this?
Here comes

I say "Sit!” Dragon sits
I say "Stay!", dragon stays

Now it's got a leash on, take it for a walk
And that's what, where we're at with it now
It stays on command

Here comes a large dragon
With teeth! Blood dripping! Red eyes!
And what do I got? A lasso, and I whip it up
I wrap it around its neck
And I wrestle! Wrestle! Wrestle him to the ground

Next we're gonna teach it to roll over and play dead
Teach it to roll over and play dead tonight
