i don't know why but this particular day something about you just seemed different to me i didn't know that you could talk that way you were a real good person with real bad taste and you could say that this is easy for me but you were running out of gasoline i got home, and you were stuck in the driveway had a problem, call it falling in live ya got stoned, but it was never enough you said "you're kinda cute but you drink too much and all you do is get faded and complain about stuff," and what you said it wasn't some small thing yr not the queen of my heart i'm not yr dancehall king we got dropped and we could hardly stand up so you go. oh oh oh. you say "wait" (lotta waits) it got easier but you still wish you had stayed it got dirtier you said "babe you keep me clean" but i was barely awake anyway then you found me on a different day, i got drowned it was a difficult way to go out when i could hardly stand up if i'm yr favorite don't call it surprise don't wait up--you might as well try i won't tell about the beginning of us so you go oh ooo-ohh-oh

would you just grow up/would you just let me do it? tryina bide my time writing everything but the truth would you just shut up, or is it too hard for you? and would you leave me beaten hard 'n heart all bruised so i walked off, left my head in the sand with a dollar in my wallet and a rock in my hand i was so uptight for a while, and i lost it and you would leave me here, but that was par for the course then so baby shape up or ship out and maybe you pinched on the parson's side cause right now i'm too high to be nice my bedside's primed for the night of yr life so i was drinking tall boys, passing out in the bathroom yeah i'm crashing now but i'm promise i'm coming back soon getting tired of john denver and george jones i'm sick of me too--i'm trying to go home but that was it, how you wanted to shake it up yr trying to stay hydated, a waste of a paper cup i've got a problem with cattle branding and blood ties i've had enough nice so baby shape up or ship out (etc) bobby womack i want the gold back traded taste of a wasted evening switching windows tryina get close far away from a lazy weekend wishin' codeine was more a slow theme you were saying to keep it breezy you complain though turn on the radio i'll be listening to "take it easy" take it easy shape up or ship out
