The sun goes down the same as it did before The roses die as their petals fall to the floor The opera was always an awful bore So don't blame me
Your poetry was never in vast supply So if you're less than inspired, I wouldn't cry Your broken heart is hardly the reason why So don't blame me
You weren't as good at dancing as you evidently thought You swear that you were charming once, I promise you were not So if you're treated badly now, I'd scarcely be surprised You're seen for what you really are, it's time you realized If you feel you're finally going gray You were a long time ago, that should make your day Your dog was never your best friend anyway So don't blame me
You've never thought of anything original before So why should you be startled if you can't think anymore And getting out of bed is now a challenge on its own And eating's even harder, I don't care, leave me alone I know a woman's power is undenied And if I ruined your life I'd be filled with pride Yet I could not harm you even if I tried So don't, don't, don't blame me Don't blame me
