We used to drink our Bacardi
|
Behind the old school
|
And bitch about dreams
|
That would never come true
|
Then you heard a callin'
|
That I hadn't felt
|
I liked you better
|
When you hated yourself
|
|
Now you spend lots of time
|
At that natural food place
|
Buyin' fresh blocks of tofu
|
Just like mom used to make
|
You kicked your bad habits
|
You're in perfect health
|
But I liked you better
|
When you hated yourself
|
|
Change, it came a blowin'
|
Like we never met
|
Your inner child and you play games
|
That I just don't get
|
Somewhere it's written
|
That this too shall pass
|
But lately you've just been
|
A pain in the ass....
|
|
Ask me if I care
|
Well, I guess I still do
|
Friends don't come easy
|
Even assholes like you
|
And that shrink of yours
|
She can go straight to hell
|
I liked you better
|
When you hated yourself
|
|
Last time I saw you
|
You were on Donahue
|
Discussing your book
|
And everything you've been through
|
Now you've got your glamour
|
Your fame and your wealth
|
But I still liked you better
|
When you hated yourself
|
