Expect The Worst
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.
Turn off the TV
Turn up the Stereo
Sometimes I think I'd be better off dead
I can't believe I missed the punchline
Completely unaware that anything was said
(Give me) Any kind of compliment
I'll take anything I can get
(Show me) just one sign of intelligence
I'll write it down so I don't forget
Expect the worst, and I'll fall like a star
Self-destructive, burnt myself up on the way down now
Take back the words on the tip of my tongue
Idiotic masterpiece for all the world to see
drowned out by the voices in my head
Meet me at loveline, Ill see you next time
Cock-sucker motherfucker is all she said...
Textbook head-case, I plead incopetence
Oh, I can't wait to wrap my hands around your neck
Demanding sympathy, accepting apathy
I'll take anything I can get (I'll take anything I can get)
Expect the worst, and I'll fall like a star
Self-destructive, burnt myself up on the way down now
Take back the words on the tip of my tongue, and smoke until my brain goes numb
I'll take anything I can get
(Show me) just one sign of intelligence
I'll write it down so I don't forget
Expect the worst, and I'll fall like a star
Self-destructive, burnt myself up on the way down now
Take back the words on the tip of my tongue, and smoke until my brain goes numb
Expect the worst, and I'll fall like a star(Expect the worst, and I'll fall like a star)
Take back the words on the tip of my tongue, and smoke until my brain goes numb
