Take off your shoeshang up your wings
Stack up the chairsroll up the rug
Savor the things that sobriety brings
Drain in the last from a jug
But when I hit the bottlethere s no tellin what I ll do
Cause something deep inside me wants to turn you black and blue
I can t resist youI can t wait
To twist your loving arms til you capitulate
Beat me in the kitchenand I ll beat you in the hall
There s nothing I love better than a free for all
To take your pretty neck and see which way it bends
But when it is all over we will still be friends
Wave a white flagput away the pistol
Too many people just can t get kissed
But if there s nothin I can do to make amendsbaby
Hope you don t murder me
Ohwas it all rightor was it okay
I ll make it all up to you someday
Ohbut you didn t have to laugh that way
Ohnoyou didn t have to laugh that way
Wave a white flagput away the pistol
Too many people just can t get kissed
But if there s nothin I can do to make amendsbaby
Hope you don t murder me
Geebabyhope you don t murder me
