Tired not tired he walks down the staircase
Twitching from hunger or so you might think
It’s midnight on a weeknight, but sleep isn’t coming
At least not until he scours the kitchen sink
Obsessive compulsive boy
Oh, obsessive compulsive
They call him Obsessive Compulsive Boy
The oven’s self-cleaning, but that’s not sufficient
For Obsessive Compulsive Boy
As soon as he’s done with that, he’ll rearrange the hat rack
And he’ll head outside to feed the koi fish
Obsessive Compulsive Boy
I don’t know why they call me that
Now pardon me while I wash my hands wash my hands wash my hands wash my
Hands of Obsessive Compulsive Boy
Hey kids, let’s go look at that strange man in the clean house
He hasn’t come outside for 20 days
We’ll drive him insane when we lock him in a closet
Where the clothes aren’t all facing the same way
I can see that you’re obviously jealous
Envious of my cleanly ways
And I can see that this room is in dire need of dusting
But I can’t see why you call me obsessive compulsive boy
Obsessive Compulsive Boy
I don’t know why they call me that
Now pardon me while I wash my hands wash my hands wash my hands wash my
Hands of Obsessive Compulsive Boy
