Wasting time, just going mindless Watching your charades When you were younger, did it occur to you 10 years from then, you'd act the same age?
I cannot carry on this way Although I've carried all your every little thing Carry me away
[Chorus:] Did you feel like stomping the roses Smashing out all the feeling inside of them It's bad business The way you're stomping the roses
I was flipping channels on my television And it made me feel unwell One of those complicated soap operas I almost felt like I was watching myself
I cannot carry on this way Although I've carried all your every little thing Carry me away
[Chorus:] Did you feel like stomping the roses Smashing out all the feeling inside of them It's bad business The way you're stomping the roses Everyone knows it
I know I know I know I know it's over and I know I know I know I've Always been your token nice guy I know that you rule your whole world Thought I could live in it But I just can't
[Chorus:] You know you're stomping the roses Smashing out all the feeling inside of them It's bad business The way you're stomping the roses Everyone knows it
Stomping the roses Smashing out all the feeling inside of them It's bad business The way you're stomping the roses
