Lyrics Martha Wainwright

Martha Wainwright

Around the Bend

I've been going 'round the bend

I've been taking lots of pills and things

I'll been seeing him again

There are things I've seen and done

That I would not wish on anyone

I go to bed at dawn

When you'd wish it would rain

Wash away the pain

I used to do a lot of blow

But now I only do the show

I like to get paid

I never get laid

People are too afraid

Watch out for my white lies

Watch out for my creativity

I've been around the world and back again

I still can't get those cards to win

Let it ring

Let it sting

Think of the little children

Love is not what you thought it was

Bring back the night we met

Remember what my eyes looked like then

And why you thought that I was the one

I can never see you again

'Cause I have done everything I can

To do the right thing

Now let the pendulum swing

To the wrong side of things

Watch out for the night sky

Playing tricks on your mind

Watch out for my white lies

Been around the world and back again

I still can't get those cards to win

I've been going 'round the bend
