Everything was going just fine
Until you came along
You with your droopy old face
You with your sad old song
Don't want to hear about it
You and your world of pain
Don't care that your dad has died
Or that your mom has gone insane
Don't try to bring me down
You won't succeed
Go ahead and cut yourself
I won't watch you bleed
I don't like things to think about
I like things to go on
Everything was going just fine
Then you upset the flow
Had stuff set up just right
And you knocked it down like a domino
You make a great big noise
Some people fear you
Go ahead and cry for help
I won't ever hear you
Some folks they love their siblings
Or so I've heard
Well I could call you brother
But it's a meaningless word
Goodnight lady
Lady goodnight
Goodnight lady
It's time to say goodbye
Farewell lady
Farewell lady
It's time to say
It's time to say goodbye
Everything was going just fine
Until you made a scene
With you it's always something
High, low and in-between
I got my own thing going
Don't mean to be hard-hearted
You're not the only one with problems
Don't get me started
Go on and do your thing
And I'll do mine
And if by chance we meet
We can say that it is by design
