These burning halogen lights cause cancer in laboratory mice

I read that somewhere. You know, it could be true

Why don't you flip the switch so we can start our stupid fight?

In the dark you can picture me any way you want to

Come out from behind your razor blades

Try to be sensitive for a change

There's got to be more to life than sifting through this garbage

Through the blip that became the bombshell

I'm the woman that became your chick

But I don't need this

I'll scissors-paper-rock you for the kleenex

Nature doesn't abhor a vacuum just to hear itself suck

And that's why a fool like me

That's why a fool like me

That's why a chick like me always falls in love

With a jerk like you

You know you could get a tapeworm from running around barefoot in the grass like that

Yeah, well you could be arrested for singing all your slanderous lies

Hey, I try to tell the truth, just in little digestible pieces at a time

You call that the truth? That's not the truth, and that's why you'll never open your eyes

Don't march off half-cocked, love, next time

Don't fall down half-blind

You can still pretend you're a genius

But I know I'm a loser

Check out the innocent kids playing four-square

Under the sour streetlight

They're to young to know Judy Garland died in ruby slippers

But I'll tell you right now, I'm not gonna die in no ruby slippers

Well the heart abhors a vacuum my ma used to say

And that's why a fool like me

That's why a fool like me

That's why a jerk like me always runs away
