My baby left me night and day Runnin’ round the streets Got himself a low life whore I just won’t take it no, no more He had it comin’ He had it comin’ Lord you know I swear it’s true He had it comin’ He said his love was true Told me lie after lie Someone call a doc, I’m mad Before I do somethin’ real, real bad He had it comin’ He had it comin’ Lord you know that I swear it’s true He had it comin’ He had it comin’ 2 am I was up in a fit 8 times a week Drunk again with nothin’ to say The only game I know is foul play He had it comin’ He had it comin’ Lord I swear that it’s all so true He had it comin’ He had it comin’ Oh, yes indeed He had it comin’ Don’t ya mess with me He had it comin’ He had it comin’

I Sleep Here 02:44
Aaay, I’m something else In a class all by myself I’m home Uh-huh I’m magnificence Wanna dance? I got creases in my pants Uh-huh I can boil the room And make the ladies swoon with a nod and kiss goodnight Uh-huh And let ‘em all know with my lips that life’s alright Uh-huh So who’s gonna be my baby tonight? I am fearless So line ‘em up from left to the right It’s pretty clear I live alone with bravado And ignore the phone Live for the moment - lately feels so bright And that’s why I sleep so well at night Aaay, there’s something else I must confess about myself Yeah, I’m so cool Uh-huh And I just can’t understand Your hesitated heart in hand You helpless fool Uh-huh I can boil the room And make the ladies swoon with a nod and kiss goodnight Uh-huh And let ‘em all know with my lips that life’s alright Uh-huh So who’s gonna be my baby tonight? I am fearless So line ‘em up from left to the right It’s pretty clear I live alone with bravado And ignore the phone I'll admit I’m not immensely bright And that’s why I sleep so well at night So who’s gonna be my baby tonight? I am fearless So line ‘em up from left to the right It’s pretty clear I live alone with bravado And ignore the phone It’s obscenely bad and it’s queer How routinely sad that I sleep here.

Can’t recollect or explain What happens when I cause such pain I’m sorry for remembrin less But my liver’s sore and my brain’s a mess. No sense in wondering why I can’t see out one eye My favorite shirt’s all ripped And I lost a tooth and gotta busted lip. Oh, I’ve been around, so ya don’t have to tell me Exactly how my charms utterly fail me I know myself, and I’ve known me for so long I can guess I’m the reason for strife I confess I’ve been bad all my life And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong. Take, for example, my average weekday riddle: The bookends are clear, but I can’t recall the middle Well it usually begins With the company of good friends In front of a mason jar But I wind up in a police car And everything in between is a fog I start out a cool cat and I wind up a dog Calamity’s caused when I wag my tongue I don’t need to know what was said But I’m sure I deserve my nose bled And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong. I hate to be that guy ‘Cause I’m usually quite shy But my aptitude to think Flies out the door when I have a drink And commence to make a little joke That comes out foul when my filter’s broke And innocently assume it’s all in fun. I’ve learned to accept that the fault is mine When things turn bad and the fists start to fly And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong. And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong. And that is why I don’t ask what went wrong.

You got what I want I got what you need You're giving me pause You're driving me crazy. I'm done with my lunch And I like what I see Mmmm, your sweet desserts! I gots to have it. Oh mama, can't you see what you've done? Oh mama, can't you see what you've done? Oh mama, mama, look what you're doing to me! Your sugary fondant Is worth diabetes Your graham cracker crunch Is down and delicious. A caramel tart With a filling so creamy And a cherry on top? We should change the bedsheets. Oh mama, can't you see what you've done? Oh mama, can't you see what you've done? Oh mama, mama, look what you're doing to me! I gots to have it! I gots to have it! I gots to have it!
