You aim this haunted look at me
Seems after ev'ry beer you claim that in your mind are images that one should never see
So often we've gone through this scene
Could recite the whole thing easily, it's like an old joke that's been ground to death by memes
What is this secret that you keep?
Used to think that but now the long build-up just breeds letdown, nothin' would satisfy me
Do me a solid, please, shut your whole-ass face for me

"What man mustn't know", that's the line you always say
Treat it like a joke because you never will explain
Sure, you always go on 'bout how I'd go insane
But how is it that your ass made it through it okay?

I'm no longer spooked, it's become a borin' bit
Don't know why you insist, kinda rude
Maybe I'm too busy bein' not involved
Let me eat my food, I don't care 'bout you, I'm no longer spooked

Could almost swear that once
You didn't pull this schtick from openin' 'til close, once was one of my saner buds
Now you're clowin' 'round, it's nuts
Stop keepin' your hoodie up, you're not mysterious, just a putz who's tryin' to be cool
But the truth is that you come off as a big tool
Whole pub joins in together makin' fun of you

"What man mustn't know", dude, that's what you always say
"Must keep my lips closed", I wish you would, instead you bray
'Bout how what you know will kill hope and quickly drain
Our will to on this earth, remain, you're a nutcase

We're no longer spooked (we're no longer spooked), you can't risk the smallest hint
But here's a clue (a little clue): we don't care, it's true (not one jot, it's true)
Maybe we're too (maybe we're too busy) busy havin' fun (havin' fun) and all
And not killin' moods hidin' "the real truth", we're no longer spooked

"What man mustn't know is what I've got in my brain
I can't let it go because it haunts you for all days"
Buddy, we all know, your whole schtick's been on replay
And when we start a guessin' game, you shriek all crazed
"What man mustn't know"? Too busy here ignorin' your
Cryin' screams, your show has become so borin', stop it
"What man mustn't know"? Dude, I'm sorry, I'm no longer spooked
