Your teeth were white, full of fluoride like sharks' I wondered if they would glow in the dark Like those Life-Savers Wint-O-Green sparks I want to ask if I'll get to find out But when I talk that's never what it's about It's just inane garbage in my brain Like did you know life savers Light up like lightbulbs If you chew them in the dark It's crystal collapsing Not fire catching And I hope you'll find my facts interesting So I never have to tell you my thoughts So I never have to show you enough To see me tick I read it only works with Wint-O-Green They're pretty cheap right after Hallowe'en But you told me that you'd already seen So like a kid whose best joke has been told I lost my cool, swallowed one of them whole I could have died but I'm breathing right through the hole Now, did you know life savers Look just like life buoys And their inventor had a son Who drowned himself at sea Before he turned thirty three I hope you'll find my facts interesting So I never have to tell you my thoughts So I never have to show you enough To see me tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
