She's got a terrible affliction

That is spinning around like a top

But it is a common addiction

She follows the rules and can't stop

She doesn't care what they're there for

She doesn't know what they mean

To stray from the norm she does abhor

She thinks questioning rules is obscene

Spinning around, she is spinning around

She is trapped in a terrible course

Shallow and broken, miserably unspoken

The groove she is in's reinforced

One day the rules might kill her

She spared not a thought to their source

If she dies as a result of her ardor

She will feel not a drop of remorse

She's got a terrible affliction

That is spinning around like a top

But it is a common addiction

She follows the rules and can't stop

Spinning around, she is spinning around

She is trapped in a terrible course

Shallow and broken, miserably unspoken

The groove she is in's reinforced

Spinning around, she is spinning around

She is trapped in a terrible course

Shallow and broken, miserably unspoken

The groove she is in's reinforced

She's got a terrible affliction

That is spinning around like a top

But it is a common addiction

She follows the rules and can't stop

One day the rules might kill her

She spared not a thought to their source

If she dies as a result of her ardor

She will feel not a drop of remorse
