Debaser

Got me a movie
I want you to know
Slicing up eyeballs
I want you to know
Girlie so groovy
I want you to know
Don’t know about you

But I am un chien andalusia
I am un chien andalusia
I am un chien andalusia
I am un chien andalusia

Wanna grow
Up to be
Be a debaser (debaser)
Debaser, (debaser)
Debaser, (debaser)
Debaser, (debaser)
Debaser, (debaser)
Debaser, (debaser)

Got me a movie
Ha ha ha ho
Slicing up eyeballs
Ha ha ha ho
Girlie so groovie
Ha ha ha ho
Don’t know about you

But I am un chien andalusia
I am un chien andalusia
I am un chien andalusia
I am un chien andalusia

(debaser), debaser
(debaser), debaser
(debaser), debaser
(debaser), debaser
(debaser), debaser
(debaser), debaser
