Good evening, ladies and gentlemen I have a story to tell you of ones slow decline Where a girl yanked on the strings To break this man's heart
Oh lord, I think I deserve a little better than this I think I've earned it So I'll just keep humming this song And hope you follow
Turn me over, roll me 'round To find the truth that I don't want found Oh, don't believe everything you hear I'm the snake waiting for you dear And eventually you'll come to me I know you will... oh, I know you will
You're lipstick-crazy, I make my pass The drink turns over, the glass smashed And with the kindness and my smarts I replace your pleasure With a friend at the bottom
Turn me over, roll me 'round To find the truth that I don't want found Oh, don't believe everything you hear I'm the snake waiting for you dear And eventually you'll come to me I know you will
Ooh, it's my fate to be your biggest mistake Oh, oh, I'll tell you all you want to hear Until you scream
I know you will
Oh, goodnight, oh, goodnight, fair lady
Oh, turn me over, roll me 'round To find the truth that I don't want found Oh, don't believe everything you hear I'm the snake waiting for you dear And eventually you'll come to me And eventually you'll come to me
Oh, we can agree to disagree Maybe that was you then, but now this is me And eventually you'll come to me Baby, I know you will
