Lame

Now everything's fine but I'm still gonna whine

You've got eyes that shine

But they aren't mine unless I pay for them in full

And that's the rule and I guess that's cool

But I ain't no fool

And I won't be made to look like I'm some troglodyte

I won't come home until it's night

Can't be seen just hanging around

Unless you come along

Girl, if you go, I'm gonna stay home

But if you stay, I'll go away

And I won't come back all night

No, that ain't right, but let's not fight

These words are trite, but they're the only ones that I know

You must have things to do

And I can't always be with you, there's a thousand reasons I could name

But every single one is lame

You take these chains, break these ties that bind me my whole life

Take me home, I don't mind, and now we both hate life

Face down in some bar you'll find me waiting, wife

Calling out your name

Now wait a minute dear, get yourself another beer

And as long as you're there, get me one too

And we'll work this thing all out

I had no doubt, don't you sit there and pout

[Incomprehensible]

And I won't be made some troglodyte

I won't come home until it's night

Can't be seen just hanging around

Unless you go along them down

You take these chains, break these ties that bind me my whole life

Take me home, I don't mind, and now we both hate life

Face down in some bar you'll find me waiting, wife

Calling out your name

Girl, if you go, I'm gonna stay home

But if you stay, I'll go away

And I won't come back all night

No, that ain't right, but let's not fight

These words are trite, but they're the only ones that I know

You must have things to do

And I can't always be with you, there's a thousand reasons I could name

But every single one is lame

You take these chains, break these ties that bind me my whole life

Take me home, I don't mind, and now we both hate life

Face down in some bar you'll find me waiting, wife

Calling out your name, your name
