O deserts down below us And storms up above Like a stray dog gone defective Like a paper tiger in the sun Just like a paper tiger Torn apart by idle hands Through the helter skelter morning Fix yourself while you still can No more ashes to ashes

Oh what's in you now? Oh. What's in you now? Step inside this nightmare where I live Oh what's in you now? Helter Skelter running through my veins What's in you? The madman roams inside my head The madman roams inside my head Satan's coming on his way

Hey... look around you Everything's helter-skelter Listen up... I warn you Run for cover, run Bang... it happened Time's up, Armageddon Fire... meltdown The sky is crumbling in Black curtains... never ending Escape... you're joking

Helter skelter Tell me tell me tell me the answer When you get to the bottom You go back to the top of the slide And you go for a ride Then you get to the bottom Then you see me again Do you, don't you want me to love you Coming down fast I'm right here

Helter skelter You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer Helter skelter, helter skelter When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide Do you, don't you want me to love you I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you Helter skelter helter

Helter skelter, helter skelter Helter skelter When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer Yes, she is Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
