Typewriter torment, dreadful disease
Caught it the first day I touched the keys
You wear down your fingers, churn out your pap
Oh, it eats up your life like a dose of the clap, yeah
Typewriter
Typewriter torment it tortures me still
If only my doctor could see that I'm ill
ย
Typewriter fever gives birth to a flood
It sweeps through your body, curdles your blood
You curse and discurse but you're damned for all time
The moment your fingers give birth to a rhyme
Yeah, typewriter
Typewriter fever, it harries me still
If only my doctor would give me a pill
ย
Typewriter fever, I'm worn to a stub
I've dumped my Thesaurus, pulled out the plug
I'm rending my ribbon, I'm bending my stool
Don't bother rewinding, I'm done with it all
Oh yeah, it's typewriter
But why can't my doctor just say that I'm ill?
Typewriter fever is paying his bill
Typewriter fever, it hurries me still
If only my doctor would give me a pill

Typewriter, typewriter, evil
