I'm ready to end this tango charade
But you're clinging like a kid's sticky hand
You beg me to stay, you sob and you say
I owe you one last kick at the can
Well, if you want to scream, yell, tell me go to hell
I'll sit and take it 'til the light of day
But when you see the sun, consider my debt done
And I'll be on my way
'Cause hot dog, it's the bitter end
I never tasted nothing so sweet
You and me, we've got a history
But it's a past tense song of defeat
You still think I'll rescue you from all your fears
Fix you up and make you alright
Honey, you've got your characters confused
I'm the laid back hippie, not the brave white knight
You promise I'll see things your way soon
Beg your forgiveness 'fore long
I'd love to agree but the problem, you see
Is if I do, we'll both be wrong
But if you want to cry, pout, knock yourself out
A river of tears won't make you right
Believe me when I say even if I stay
You'll still be alone all night
Chorus x 2
Oh, don't put that song on repeat
No, honey, won't you let the past tense rest in peace
