Lyrics Florence Quits - Chess In Concert

Florence Quits

So you got what you want
What a nasty ambition
Set me up, pull me down
Then exploit my condition
I should have guessed, woman
That if pressed, woman
You’re on nobody’s side
But your own
And you’re behaving
Like a mere woman
It’s so clear, woman
It’s your sex!
Once they start
Getting old
And getting worried
They let fly
Take it out
On the one who supports them--
That’s you I’m talking about
Who’d ever guess it?
Such a squalid little ending--
Watching you descending
Just as far as you can go
I’m learning
Things I didn’t want to know
Who’d ever think it?
This would be the situation
One more observation--
How’d we ever get this far
Before you showed me
What you really are?
You’ll be lost without me
To abuse like you’re used to
Go away!
Just get out!
Be someone else’s parasite!
