Fuck Was I
[Verse 1]
Love grows in me like a tumor
Parasite bent on devouring its host
I'm developing my sense of humor
Till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth
Till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet

[Chorus]
Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation
Maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burnt
What the fuck was I thinking?

[Verse 2]
Love plows through me like a 'dozer
I've got more give than a bale of hay
And there's always a big mess left over
With the "what did you do?" and the "what did you say?"
"What did you do?" and the "what did you say?"

[Chorus]
Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation
Maybe I'll be the special one that doesn't get burnt
What the fuck was I thinking?
What the fuck was I thinking?
What the fuck was I thinking?
What the fuck was I thinking?
[Verse 3]
Love tears me up like a demon
Opens the wounds and then fills them with lead
And I'm having some trouble just breathing
If we weren't such good friends, I think that I'd hate you
If we weren't such good friends, I'd wish you were dead

[Chorus]
Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation
Maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burnt
What the fuck was I thinking?
What the fuck was I thinking?
What the fuck was I thinking?
What the fuck was I thinking?

[Bridge]
Love is so embarrassing
I'm this awkward and uncomfortable thing
I'm running out of places to hide it
I'm running out of places to hide it

[Outro]
(You know that I've got what you want)
What the fuck was I thinking?
(You know that I've got what you want)
What the fuck was I thinking?
(You know that I've got what you want)
What the fuck was I thinking?
(You know that I've got what you want)
What the fuck was I thinking?
(You know that I've got what you want)
