Love Me Just Leave Me Alone lyrics

i saw you standing there / you had gold dust in your pocket / you combed barbed wire through your hair / you thought I didn`t notice / the skin on your teeth had a tear

i tried not to notice so you started to shout / then you and all your minions / started flapping your tiny arms all about / they said you were a wise man / women teach wise men to pout

i tried to forget you / but you tied bells to your name / they jingle every time i thought of you / without shame / i tried to be unlovable / why couldn`t you do the same?

what`s the matter? / don`t you love me no more? / alright then / love me just leave me alone

your mind is a circle / but it thinks in straight lines / your arms are like corset strings / they only know how to bind / lemmings are adorable / why don`t you try it sometime?

your mother was a wolf bite / your daddy was a cigarette / your brother was a rose bud / cross-bred with a car wreck
your sister was a stockbroker / but you ain`t nothing but a turtleneck

what`s the matter? / don`t you love me no more? / alright then / love me just leave me alone

it`s not your little boy smile / it`s not your little boy name / it`s those big boy hands / that are the ones to blame / i tried to be unlovable / why couldn`t you do the same?

what`s the matter? / don`t you love me no more? / alright then / love me just leave me alone

what`s the matter? / don`t you love me no more? alright then / love me just leave me alone
