Laura calls me in the middle of the night
|
Passes on her painful information
|
Then these careless fingers they get caught in her vice
|
Til they're bleeding on my coffee table
|
|
Living alone isn't all that it's cracked up to be, oh whoa whoa
|
I'm on her side, why does she push the poison on me?
|
Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa
|
|
Laura has a very hard time, all her life has been one long disaster
|
Then she tells me she suddenly believes she's seen very good sign
|
She'll be taking some aggressive action
|
|
I fight her wars while she's slamming her doors in my face, oh wo wo
|
Failure to break was the only mistake that she made, oh wo wo wo
|
|
Here I am feeling like a fucking fool
|
Do I react the way exactly she intends me to?
|
Every time I think I'm off the hook, she makes me lose my cool
|
I'm her machine, and she can punch all the keys
|
She can push any button I was programmed through
|
|
Laura calls me when she needs a good fix (ah ah)
|
All her questions will get sympathetic answers
|
I should be so immunized to all of her tricks (ah ah)
|
She's surviving on her second chances
|
|
Sometimes I feel like this godfather deal is all wrong, oh whoa whoa
|
How can she hold an umbilical cord for so long? Oh wo wo wo wo
|
|
(Ahhh ahhh, ahhhhhh ahh ahhhh¡¦)
|
I've done everything I can, what else am I supposed to do?
|
I'm her machine, and she can punch all the keys
|
She can push any button I was programmed through
|
|
Laura (Laura) loves me (loves me)
|
Even if I don't care (if I don¡¯t care, ah)
|
That's my problem, that's her sacred absolution, if she had to
|
She would put herself in my chair (put herself in my chair, ah)
|
Even though I faced electrocution
|
|
She always says I'm the best friend that she's ever had, oh whoa whoa
|
How do you hang up on someone who needs you that bad?
|
Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa
|
