| She dropped my hand and said, «I will go no further»
|
| I dropped my head and hid my tears with laughter
|
| (You know that) life’s never been a great mystery to me
|
| It begins, then crawls slowly to the end
|
| And I’ve no problems if you wish to join my views
|
| Just add your name to the list of superficial friends
|
| It (funny how these things work)
|
| All seemed like it was too good to be true
|
| It (funny now it’s always your fault)
|
| Was and soon it came time to play my dues
|
| So came the day when she had had enough
|
| She kept home and I wasn’t asked to stay
|
| She said, «you don’t have to blame yourself, you know»
|
| But I wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| I wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| Don’t feed the hand that bites you
|
| Just learn to starve
|
| Don’t fight for change in your time
|
| Just swallow your depression
|
| And say you’re happy that it’s rotten out today
|
| And who wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| No, you wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| She left me alone, claiming we’d run out of things to fight about
|
| I was crushed of course, but at least I’ve something I can write about
|
| I guess I’m just some kind of malcontent
|
| Who gets paid for having nothing good to say
|
| And even though it doesn’t pay the rent
|
| You know I wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| I wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| I wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| I wouldn’t have it any other way
|
| I wouldn’t have it any other way |
