Mesopotamia, Mesopotamia
You fucking give me the creeps,
You fucking give me the creeps
I've never known another city to burn
Face down in the bottom of a river,
Swimming with the dead makes me wanna shiver,
If you really wanna know,
I'd rather just drown alone
Clay fingers reaching for the ceiling
Once numb, now tingling with feeling
You'll see in the end that nothing really gets away
And I'd give it all up,
Just to be with you
Mesopotamia, Mesopotamia
You fucking give me the creeps,
You fucking give me the creeps
I've never known another city to burn
You took back the mud from which you're made
And threw it at me like a fucking grenade
You keep cutting my throat, then you ask me if I'm feeling okay
This city is just like any other,
They just keep blowing it up,
And building up another
If you you look in the hole,
You'll see it ain't going away
Not give it all up,
Just to be with you
Mesopotamia, Mesopotamia
You fucking give me the creeps,
You fucking give me the creeps
I've never known another city to burn
City to burn
