Better to be ready if you rattle my cage
Oh I should loosen up some, baby I know
But I get angrier with age
Better to be ready if you rattle my cage

Oh you look disappointed in me
Oh am I not as thoughtful as you thought I'd be?
Yeah I know I'm always giving you the third degree
But you look disappointed in me

Now I'm in a bad, bad mood; a bad, bad mood
I'm in a bad, bad mood; a bad, bad mood

We'll rate, generate, generate some more
So what you singing about summer for?

Forgive me if I'm onto one
And I'll afford it but I suspect
That retrospect to your perception
You're looking in the wrong direction
As I'm sure that you'll come through
I'm in a pretty awful mood

Better to be ready if you rattle my cage
And I know I'm always putting it on you
But I get angrier with age
Better to be ready if you rattle my cage

Now I'm in a bad, bad mood; a bad, bad mood
I'm in a bad, bad mood; a bad, bad mood

I'm in a bad, bad mood; a bad, bad mood
