Well, I hear you haven't learned a thing yet, doll face,
I hear still you haven't learned to shut your mouth,
I've heard your ugly accusations up and down the state,
I see you still don't know what you're talking about,
Well, anyone that knows me won't believe you,
And anyone that doesn't, doesn't care,
And anyone that spends a little time with you will soon realise you're not completely there.
And you've never been nice,
And you've never been wrong,
You've never been loved,
You won't let nobody in,
You've been mad at the world too long,
And you never forget,
And you never forgive,
But you'll never know a moment of peace in your life like that,
Man, what a way to live.
Now we never really had that much in common,
It was a mismatch, any common fool could see,
But you told me God had sent you – how could anyone argue with that?
At the time, I figured you knew him better than me,
Yeah, and you started off so well behaved you fooled me,
You never raised your voice or made a slip,
Oh yeah, you started off the sweetest thing ‘til the coast was clear,
Then you let your past out of that cage and I wound up needing a chair and a whip.
No, you've never been nice,
And you've never been wrong,
You've never been loved,
You won't let nobody near,
You've been mad at the world too long,
And you never forget,
And you never forgive,
But you'll never know a moment of peace in your life like that,
Man, what a way to live.
Yeah, now, the way I see it, you made seven serious mistakes,
Yes, in eight ways did you blow it pretty bad,
You started off believing that my patience was unending,
Mistook my kindness for a weakness, broke us up with your bare hands,
Yeah, but my love doesn't have my kind of patience,
Yeah, my poor wife's so frustrated, sometimes she beats you up in her dreams,
You see she had someone like you in her past, and he caused a lot of damage,
She says your lies, and your jive, and your general vibe, just make her want to scream,
Me, I tried to just forget you and get on with it,
I've tried to live my life and let you be,
I've tried to learn from my mistakes and let the past bury the past,
I can't believe that, after all these years, you're still trying to get even with me,
Yeah, you're way out of control, like an explosion,
And you're completely out of line – leave us alone,
People break up all the time without declaring holy war,
You've become one of the very few people in my life that I wish I'd never known.
‘Cause you've never been nice,
And you've never been wrong,
You've never been loved,
You won't let nobody close,
You've been mad at the world too long,
And you never forget,
And you never forgive,
And you'll never know a moment of peace in your life like that,
Man, man oh man, what a way to live.
