Take a breath, take it deep Calm yourself, he says to me If you play, you play for keeps Take a gun, and count to three I’m sweating now, moving slow No time to think, my turn to go
And you can see my heart beating You can see it through my chest And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving I know that I must pass this test So just pull the trigger
Say a prayer to yourself He says close your eyes Sometimes it helps And then I get a scary thought That he’s here means he’s never lost
And you can see my heart beating You can see it through my chest And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving I know that I must pass this test So just pull the trigger
As my life flashes before my eyes I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise? So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye But it’s too late to think of the value of my life
And you can see my heart beating You can see it through my chest And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving I know that I must pass this test
And you can see my heart beating You can see it through my chest And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving I know that I must pass this test So just pull the trigger
Oh, well imagine As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor And I can't help but to hear No, I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words "What a beautiful wedding What a beautiful wedding," says a bridesmaid to a waiter "And, yes, but what a shame What a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore." I chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality I chime in "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of Oh, well in fact Well I'll look at it this way I mean, technically, our marriage is saved Well this calls for a toast So pour the champagne Oh, well in fact Well I'll look at it this way I mean, technically, our marriage is saved Well this calls for a toast So pour the champagne, pour the champagne I chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality I chime in "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality Again I chime in "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality I chime in "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality Again
Say my name, and his in the same breath, I Dare you to say they taste the same, Let the leaves fall off in the summer And let December glow feel flames
Brace myself and let go, Start it over again in Mexico These friends, they don’t love you They just love the hotel suites, now
I don’t care what you think As long as it’s about me The best of us can find happiness In misery
Oh, take a chance, let your body get a tolerance, I’m not a chance, but a heat wave in your pants Pull a breath like another cigarette, Palms up, I’m trading ‘em (trading ‘em)
I’m the oracle in my chest, Let the guitar scream like a fascist, Sweat it out, shut your mouth, Free love on the streets, but In the alley and I ain’t that cheap, now
I don’t care what you think, As long as it’s about me The best of us can find happiness In misery
I don’t care what you think, As long as it’s about me The best of us can find happiness In misery
Said-a, I don’t care just a-what you think, As long as it’s about me, you said-a I don’t care just what you think, As long as it’s about me, you said-a I don’t care (I don’t care) You said I don’t care (I don’t care) Said I don’t care, I don’t care I don’t care (I don’t care), I said-a I don’t care
I don’t care what you think, As long as it’s about me The best of us can find happiness In misery
I don’t care what you think, As long as it’s about me The best of us can find happiness In misery
