How Do You Slow This Thing Down?

The Gothic Archies

Compositor: Stephin Merritt

Chorus:
How do you slow this thing down?
How do you make this thing slow down?
We tried to brake,
By saying "Must be some mistake."
Problem unsolved,
We said "Don't make me get involved."

Chorus

We tried to slow,
It down by shrieking "No No NO!"
We tried to halt,
By whimpering "It's not my fault."

Chorus

It's not fair.
We've tried all kinds of prayer.
We've tried science,
It sped up in defience.

Chorus
