I don't know why,
But when I'm dying to be unkind,
Honey, you're the first in line,
I've got no spine,
And when I'm dying for to,
Spit out my spite,
You're the first in line.
I don't claim to be a saint,
But I've been playing at this game knowingly,
Too long.
It doesn't take much to brave,
To elicit some restraint,
Or at least to hold my tongue.
I don't know why,
But when I'm dying to be unkind,
Honey, you're the first in line,
I've got no spine,
And when I'm dying for to,
Spit out my spite,
You're the first in line.
I can blame it all on fate:
"I can't help but act in haste",
Wash my hands of every wrong.
In truth it soothes my pain,
It cools a crying shame,
Feigning guilt in pointless songs.
I don't know why,
But when I'm dying to be unkind,
Honey, you're the first in line,
I've got no spine,
And when I'm dying for to,
Spit out my spite,
You're the first in line.
I'm looking for a fight,
Come on and do your worst,
I'm looking for a fight.
I don't know why,
But when I'm dying to be unkind,
Honey, you're the first in line,
I've got no spine,
And when I'm dying for to,
Spit out my spite,
You're the first in line.
I'm looking for a fight,
Come on and do your worst,
I'm looking for a fight.
