I Took Your Name lyrics

I wore the clothes you wanted

I took your name

If there is some confusion, who's to blame?

I signed your living will

I smiled your face

I'm ready to close the book on NASA in outer space

If there is some confusion

Who's to blame?

Who's to blame?

I sequenced your arrival

I sealed your fate

I pushed the button and erased your master tape

I wrote the sales pitch

I threw the brake switch

I dragged your big-ass daddy Roth car out of that ditch

If there is some confusion

Who's to blame?

Who's to blame?

I crossed your great divide

I stirred your ocean's tide

I called your bluff until I blew your circuits wide

I'll be your albatross

Devil, dog, Jesus, God

I don't want to be Iggy Pop, but if that's what it takes, hey

If there is some confusion

Who's to blame?

Who's to blame?
