VERSE 1:
In a different time
Where no one's gone before
You came into my sight
So cute, could not ignore
You purred at me
You purred at me
You purred at me

And I guess I didn't think
That there would be a catch
And so I fell hard
And then I brought you back
With me
With me
With me

PRE-CHORUS:
Now it's gone wrong
And it won't cease
And I realize the blame is on me

CHORUS:
'Cause I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
Would make such a mess now
Who knew you'd go multiplyin'
When I put you down, no
I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
So shame on me now
Who knew you'd go multiplyin'
Now I have so many more to pass around
Oh, oh, tribbles, tribbles, tribbles
Oh, oh, tribbles, tribbles, tribbles

VERSE 2:
They take up cargo space
They do not seem to stop
The crew is obsessed
They even got Spock
We're drowning
We're drowning
We're drowning

And now they're everywhere
On the bridge and in the vents
And when I order food they come out instead
And now I see
And now I see
And now I see

PRE-CHORUS:
That it's gone wrong
And it won't cease
And I realize the blame is on me

CHORUS:
I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
Would make such a mess now
Who knew you'd go multiplyin'
When I put you down, no
I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
So shame on me now
Who knew you'd go multiplyin'
Now they're covering the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, tribbles, tribbles, tribbles
Oh, oh, tribbles, tribbles, tribbles

BRIDGE:
And it's all come clear
I'm wearing thin
I am losing it
'cause all I think about is shooting them

CHORUS:
I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
Would make such a mess now
Who knew you'd go multiplyin'
When I put you down, no
I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
Phasers set to kill now
Getting into absolutely everything
Wanna stomp them on the cold, hard ground
Oh, oh, tribbles, tribbles, tribbles
Oh, oh, tribbles, tribbles, tribbles

I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
(Tribbles, tribbles, tribbles)
I didn't know the tribble that I brought in
(Tribbles, tribbles, tribbles)
