Wizard Needs Food, Badly

Five Iron Frenzy


I know that you're probably mad at me. i've come to expect that.
You know that you'll never have all of me, you've come to resent
That. you say "tomato", i say "video games",
You're acting so solemn. you'll take the precious remote control
From me. do i sound like gollum? (it's) not that i'm escaping,
You charm me like the flame does moths, it's just that you'd
Prefer me docile, like a narcoleptic sloth.

The wizard needs food badly, the voltron can't be incomplete.
The things i love, you hate so madly, i must not go down in
Defeat.

In the hunter-gatherer societies, i'd bring home the bacon.
Public thought says men should try and be tame, stirred but not
Shaken. i say "baseball" then you start to cry, i'm
Sorry i grieve you. i think a motorcycle's a good way to die,
This must bereave you. i know that you try so hard, and i'm not
Saying it's a sin, it's just that they don't feel my pain, in
Vogue or cosmopolitan.

And i'm sure you have your reasons, but listen to me please... i
Want the g.i. joe with the kung-fu action grip. i want nintendo
With the extra-graphics-microchip. tackle football with rocks,
And sticks, and knives, and pain... i want a truck with the four
Wheel drive train. you'd rather see me get good at bookkeepping,
I could clean house in the time that i'm not sleeping. i live to
Serve you, and i don't want to be rude, but you should see that
The wizard needs food.
