lyrics

CHORUS
Oh oh ohh
I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-ohh
Losing all control
Oh-oh-ohh!
‘Cause I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Oh no!

VERSE 1
Someone put a wall
in the middle of this floor
I’m seething
It’s fucking with
My spacial awareness

My toe’s been mauled
And I think I’m bleeding
OTHER VOICE: That’s just sweat
But it’s coming from my toe-pits

BRIDGE
I’m going to cry
My pinky toe’s
Gone awry

Why look within
When I could look without
Admitting I’m at fault
For walking straight into that wall

This stupid wall came out of nowhere!
Now it must die!

CHORUS
Oh oh ohh
I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-ohh
Losing all control
Oh-oh-ohh!
‘Cause I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Oh no!

VERSE 2
*CRASH!*
So I punched the wall
And a chunk got in my eyeball
Why is this wall
Out to get me?

I’m filled with rage, but I won’t
Stay and engage, though I ache
I won’t fall for
This wall’s trickery!

BRIDGE
It’s in my eye
My pinky toe’s
Gone awry

But why look within
When I could look without
Admitting I’m at fault
For walking straight into that wall

I HATE this stupid wall!
Now it must die!

CHORUS
Oh oh ohh
I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-ohh
Losing all control
Oh-oh-ohh!
‘Cause I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Oh no!

VERSE 3
*BANG!*
Hurled myself at the wall
With the intent to kill it
Led with my elbow
That was a mistake!

My arm is just a floppy mess
Of bones and flesh, so
The wall’s goin’ down
In a fiery blaze!

BRIDGE
My house burned down
My pinky toe’s
Flipped around

But why look within
When I could look without
Admitting I’m at fault
For walking straight into that wall

I killed that stupid wall to death!

BRIDGE 2
THE WALL IS DEAD
MY TOE IS DEAD
MY ROOMMATE BETH
HAS A PILE OF HAM

SHE LOOKS REAL MAD
SHE’S WEARING PLAID
HER HAM’S BEEN SPRAD
WITH A DOLLOP OF JAM

BRIDGE
I’m going to cry
‘Cause my pinky toe’s
Gone awry

Why look within
When I could look without
Admitting I’m at fault
For walking straight into that wall

I am blameless!
I am shameless!
I HAVE SO MANY REGRETS!

CHORUS
Oh oh ohh
I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-ohh
Losing all control
Oh-oh-ohh!
‘Cause I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Oh no!

CHORUS
Oh oh ohh
I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-ohh
Losing all control
Oh-oh-ohh!
‘Cause I stubbed my
Toe-oh-oh-oh-oh!
Oh no!
