[Verse]
This has got to die, this has got to stop
This has got to lie down, with someone else on top
You can keep me pinned, it’s easier to tease
But you can't paint an elephant quite as good as she
[Chorus]
And she may cry_____ like a baby. And she may dri____ve me cra____zy
Cause I____ am lately… Lo____nely
[Verse]
So why’d you have to lie? I take it I'm your crotch
The pillow in your pillow case is easier to touch
And then you think you've sinned, as you fall upon your knees
Living in your picture, still forget the breeze
[Chorus]
And she may rise if I sing you down
And she may wisely cling to the ground
Cause I_____ am lately ho_____rny
So why___ would she take me ho____rny?
[Middle 8]
What's the point of this song? Or even singing?
You've already gone, why am I clinging?
Well I could throw it out, and I could live without
And I could do it all for you I could be strong
C#m / / / / / B
Tell me if you want me to lie
[Verse]
'Cause this has got to die, this has got to stop
This has got to lie down, down with someone else on top
You can both keep me pinned, ‘cause it's easier to tease
But you can't make me happy quite as good as me
Well you know that’s a lie
