I gotta exorcise your spirit from my soul(From my soul)I gotta exorcise your spirit, keep me whole(Yes, yes)I'm gonna go downtown tomorrowAnd ship your spirit yonderI gotta exorcise your spirit from my soulI gotta exorcise your spirit from my mind(From my mind)I gotta exorcise your spirit, demon kind(Oh, yeah)And while you're cryin' out to Benji(Whoo)I'm gonna desecrate your memoryI'm gonna exorcise your spirit from my mindOh, you got me by the bay(By the bay)And you got me by the river(Day by day)And I'm feelin' like a hotdog in a military bogAnd I cannot find my way through the fogAnd you got me on the run(On the run)And I cannot beg differ(In a gun)And I'm feelin' like cool cat with a cavalry hatAnd I cannot find my crack in the glassI gotta exorcise your spirit from my soul(From my soul)I gotta exorcise your spirit, keep me whole(Yeah, yeah)I'm gonna go downtown tomorrowAnd ship your spirit yonderI'm gonna exorcise your spirit from my soulAnd you got me by the bay(By the bay)And you got me by the river(Day by day)And I'm feelin' like a hotdog in a military bogAnd I cannot find my way through the fogAnd you got me on the run(On the run)And I cannot beg to differ(In a gun)And I'm feelin' like cool cat who needs a cavalry hatAnd I cannot find my crack in the glassAnd the whistle blows ooh-weeTake me 'way from here ooh-wee-wooOoh-wee, have to stray from hereKeep on keepin' onI gotta exorcise your spirit from my soul(From my soul)I gotta exorcise your spirit, keep me whole(Yes, yes)And may your pots come like a copper'Cause you intoxicate me pauperI gotta exorcise your spirit from my soulI gotta exorcise your spirit from my soul(From my soul)I gotta exorcise your spirit, keep me whole(Yeah, yeah)I'm gonna go downtown tomorrowAnd ship your spirit yonderI gotta exorcise your spirit from my soulYes, yesOh, yesYeah, yeahAh, haOoh...
