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.
Why'd you have to go
And wreck it apart?
Been waiting such a long time now
For the good times to start
Whatcha trying to prove
(Don't make me kill you again)
By acting so tough?
(Don't make me kill you again)
Figure out a way to say baby
(Ahh-ahh)
And dust yourself off
(Don't make me kill you again)
Whatcha trying to do
By rattling my cage? (Ahhhh)
Did you take some bad pill sometime
That makes you be this way?
Oh whatcha trying to prove
(Don't make me kill you again)
By acting so tough?
(Don't make me kill you again)
Figure out a way to say baby
(Ahh-ahh)
And dust yourself off
(Don't make me kill you again)
Why'd you have to go
(Don't make me kill you again)
And wreck it apart?
(Don't make me kill you again)
Been waiting such a long time now
(Don't make me kill you again)
For the good times to start
(Don't make me kill you again)
For the good times to start
(Don't make me kill you again)
For the good times to start
(Don't make me kill you again)
For the good times to start
(Don't make me kill you again)
