Collecting Pinkies

I've been thinking about slashing your bike tires.
Thinking about blackening his eyes.
Cause right now there is no one, who's got it as good you do,
in my head.
Life was sweet for a moment, and then....
I was lonely lately, but I'm waiting to get wise.
Coo-Coo-Ca-Chew,
Who needs the truth,
when you gotta knife.
I've been missing out on all the cool kid parties.
I waited around but the scene forgot to call me.
and only a fool would think,
throwing sticks in your spokes would bring you back to me...
But, I'm crouched down in this bush
with a jar full of fingers.
Cause everything happens for a reason
I was lonely lately, but I'm waiting to get wise.
Coo-Coo-Ca-Chew,
Who needs the truth,
when you gotta knife.
I've been collecting pinkies from fairweather friends
I snip the tip off of your finger, Its the price you pay for a broken promise.
Mom, didn't build me tough enough,
but I'm gonna suss it out
cause I'm full of vengeful thoughts,
lemon in your papercuts.
This is when things get messy
This is when revenge gets bloody
Been lonely lately, but I'm waiting to get wise.
Coo-Coo-Ca-Chew,
Who needs the truth,
when you gotta knife.
Been collecting pinkies from fairweather friends
I come to take your finger this time
you know that you swore, so baby don't lie.
Don't lie
