The Tender Surrender
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Let the first recorded words of my adult life go as follows
(Hah! Hah!)
(Brrr-hah!)
(Chah-chah!)
(Brrr-)
(Ahh! Whoo!)
(Okay! Okay!)
(Ooh)
I don't know
Maybe
I can't see what you see in me
I don't know
Marky
You harpy
Stand away from me
I've got a real problem
Acting cool
Asserting social dominance in cheap turquoise shoes
I've got a real problem
Trusting you
Because I know when I'm drunk I know just what you'll try and do
La-la-love me, ha-ha-hold me
La-la-love me, ha-ha-hold me
La-la-love me, ha-ha-hold me
La-la-love me, hah-hah!
I know, I know, I know, I know it's hard to see a girl like me
You fucking know, you fucking know I'm fucking lying through my teeth
Yeah, I've got some extra veins, I've got some extra nerves
I'm hoping one day acting cool will make me feel self assured
I know, I know, I know, I know it's hard to see a girl like me
You fucking know, you fucking know I'm fucking lying through my teeth
She's got your dopamine in her brain, she'll never be the same
I know I'm acting most tragic when I'm passing on the blame
Okay okay alright alright okay okay alright
Okay alright alright okay okay alright alright
Okay okay alright alright okay okay alright
Okay okay alright alright okay okay alright
I don't know
Maybe
I can't see what you see in me
I don't know
Marky
You harpy
Stand away from me
I've got a real problem
Ahhhh
I've got a real problem
Trusting you
Because I know when you aim, I know just where you're going to shoot
La-la-love me, ha-ha-hold me
La-la-love me, ha-ha-hold me
La-la-love me, ha-ha-hold me
La-la-love me, hah-hah!
I know, I know, I know, I know it's hard to see a girl like me
You fucking know, you fucking know I'm fucking lying through my teeth
Yeah, I've got some extra veins, I've got some extra nerves
I'm hoping one day acting cool will make me feel self assured
I know, I know, I know, I know it's hard to see a girl like me
You fucking know, you fucking know I'm fucking lying through my teeth
She's got your dopamine in her brain, she'll never be the same
I know I'm acting most tragic when I'm passing on the blame
Don't you dare remember me as an instant message R.I.P.
Don't you dare remember me as an instant message R.I.P.
Don't you dare remember me as an instant message R.I.P.
Don't you dare remember me as an instant message R.I. p
