Walking through the rooms in my head

I came across your image

You looked at me with that sweet smile and said

Something they won't let me repeat

We hurt the ones we love the most

It's a subtle form of compliment

I don't care if you talk about me

I don't care if you write it out in stone

Whenever I fall I land on my feet

I don't care, I just don't care

Mark the spot you hate with an x

Then shoot your bow and arrow

Do your worst get it all off your chest

I'll hold my breath and swallow

We hurt the ones we love the most

It's a subtle form of discipline

I don't care if you talk about me

I don't care if you write it out in stone

Whenever I fall I land on my feet

I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen

I don't care if you take it out on me

I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet

I don't care, I just don't care

Out of the alley, I spoke came Victoria

Queen Victoria sitting shocked upon the rocking horse

Of a wave said to the laureate

This minx a course as sharp as any lynx

And blacker deeper than the drinks

As any hottentot without remorse

For the lynx said she and the drinks you can see

Are hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me

Hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me

I don't care if you talk about me

I don't care if you write it out in stone

Whenever I fall I land on my feet

I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen

I don't care if you take it out on me

I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet

I don't care, I just don't care
