ASo I crawled out of the Eback door
Took off all these Btight clothes
Jumped into the Awater

Took off all these Btight clothes
Jumped into the Awater

EVicious demons on the ATV

ASo I crawled out of the Eback door
Took off all these Btight clothes
Jumped into the Awater
So I crawled out of the Eback door
Took off all these Btight clothes
Jumped into the Awater
I jumped into the EwaterB
