    Lyrics
    I'm all busted up
    Broken bones & nasty cuts
    ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN
    But this time I can't get up
    She comes to check on me
    MAKING sure I'm on my knees
    After all she's the one who put me in this state

    Is she ULTRA-VIOLENT?
    Is she DISTURBED?
    I better tell her that I LOVE her
    Before she does it all over again
    OH GOD, SHE'S KILLING ME!!!

    For now I'll lie around
    HELL, that's all I can really do
    She takes good care of me
    Just keep saying my LOVE is TRUE

    Is she ULTRA-VIOLENT?
    Is she DISTURBED?
    I better tell her that I LOVE her
    Before she does it all over again
    OH GOD, SHE'S KILLING ME!!!

    Looking out my window for
    Someone that's passing by
    No one knows I'm LOCKED in here
    All I do is cry

    For now I'll lie around
    HELL, that's all I can really do
    She takes good care of me
    Just keep saying my LOVE is TRUE
