If I pulled a you on you,
you wouldn't like that
and this tongue is sharp,
so I'll just bite that
or else I'll say things
I won't be able to take back
and an eye-for-an-eye leaves us both blind,
sightless and screaming just like a bat.

So, oh,
let's say I didn't know.
Where, then,
do you think things would go?
Do you think we could live happily
if you could just get back with me?
Because we both know,
baby, you've got needs.
But I know that you know,
baby, you planted these seeds
and we all know why this grass is so green.
Just like your varicolor eyes except this jealousy's mean.

Ah, shit, I'd say that I'm messed up
but the truth is I'm so glad that you 'fessed up.
Yeah, its true that the truth hurts and yet
its still better than bullshit that's just dressed up.

So, oh,
its just like everybody knows
that life is a bitch
and that's how it goes.
Yes, I've got this destructive itch
but scratching hurts, removing a stitch.
So excuse me if I keep my mouth shut
because if I speak, truth is,
I'll say things just to fuck you up.
