lyrics

I punched you in the kisser
It was a real pisser, it left a scar
Like a scratch on a fancy car
You won't forgive me
You hope to out-live me
Then I wrote a song
About a man who always gets it all wrong
He was a fool, a string at the end of its spool
I said touche, you got me good today

We tore each other down
There was blood all around
Last time we got into this
We fought like hell
Didn't go very well
Last time we got into this

We talked a lot of smack
Said too much to take back
I exposed your flaws
To rapturous applause
You retaliated
In ways I underestimated
Spread a lot of grief
That became our leitmotif
Our overriding theme
We took to the extreme
And what did we get
Other than venom and spit

Oh baby, you are so cruel
How dare you talk about me like that
Oh baby, you are so hard
I can't believe where your head is at

We get up off the ground
Steady ourselves for another round
A kick in the teeth
Sneak attack from underneath
Make up and kiss, live out our lives like this
