Well she's over in the corner
got her hands by her side
I hit her harder harder harder
until I thought she might die
well I got a foggy notion
to do it again
over in the corner
do it again
calomine lotion
do it again
I got a foggy notion
well then they get the police
they hit my head against the wall now
they hit me harder harder harder
don't you know I feel like cryin
I couldn't give them satisfaction
well I got a foggy notion
to do it again
over in the corner
do it again
harder harder harder
do it again
I got a foggy notion
well I got a foggy notion
to do it again
over in the corner
do it again
harder harder harder
do it again
I got a foggy notion
