lyrics

I’m gonna drink and drive---every time
You leave the children in the car

I’m gonna cheat and lie—I’ll deny
That I was ever at the bar

I’m gonna let you down---Every time
Cause I’m a thoughtless selfish boy

You speak without a sound---Every time I listen
Cause I’m a thoughtless selfish boy

You tell me what to do I’ll do it
You tell me what to do I’ll screw it up
You tell me what to do I’ll do it
You tell me what to do I’ll screw it up

I’ll be drunk and loud—every time
You need me sober, straight and shy

I’m gonna draw a crowd—every time
You want alone time with your guy

I’m going to make up lies----In my head.
From paranoia, control and dread

Imaginary crimes---That you did
I’m a controlling stupid shit

I’m gonna yell and scream in my head
Cause I’m a frightened worthless child

I’m gonna make a scene I’ll regret tomorrow
Cause I’m a self destructive guy
