INTRO:
------
(x2)
VERSE 1:
--------
*
And all the awkward ways
*
that you recoil when I get close
*
And oh, the awful grin
*
that greets me when I'm all alone
VERSE 2:
--------
*
So down on hands and knees,
*
choking, gasping, dripping spit
*
I just can't make good
*
on any of these promises
CHORUS:
-------
Then he asked me, "what does that mean?"
What's another word for desperate?
Repetition makes an impression
What's another word for desperate?
* *
I won't be around here for too very long
VERSE 3:
--------
*
So tip the bottle back,
*
bubble foam, and watch it break
*
We can all be sure
*
something awful's coming this way
VERSE 4:
--------
*
So take this medicine
*
and measure doses, take your time
*
'cause they'll tear into you
*
They will, they will, they will, they will
REPEAT CHORUS (With "I won't be..." line twice)
INTERLUDE:
----------
* (x4)
*
And they'll tear into you
*
They will, they will, they will, they will
OUTRO:
------
* (x2)
Take it apart and let it all go
*
Holdin' it back it's all just so...
Why did I care? How did it go?
*
Wait for a while and I guess that
* *
I won't be around here for too very long (x2)
