It's beginning It's beginning to take shape But are you listening? How much more do I have to take? There's fingers in my face, take a number for the blame I never said I was perfect, it was you that lost the game
And I can't believe (I can't believe) But now I see
Chorus: It's just like pulling teeth I could've swore I heard you scream You know you've got some nerve when you feel no pain But I don't have to feel like pulling teeth I don't care what you have to say You know you struck a nerve but I feel OK And I don't have to live this way
Smoke and mirrors Mirage of trust for the hole that you dug No grass to green To catch the eye of the wandering dog No pages long enough for my words to go unsung Sad to think this is where you wanted to wind up
And I can't believe (I can't believe) But now I see
Chorus: It's just like pulling teeth I could've swore I heard you scream You know you've got some nerve when you feel no pain But I don't have to feel like pulling teeth I don't care what you have to say You know you struck a nerve but I feel OK And I don't have to live this way
Through it all you're still tired and miserable How much more do I have to say? Or should I play? Oh!
God damn! Yeah! God damn!
Chorus: It's feels like pulling teeth I could've swore I heard you scream You know you've got some nerve when you feel no pain But I don't have to feel like pulling teeth I don't care what you have to say You know you struck a nerve but I feel OK And I don't have to live this I don't have to feel like I don't have to live this way!
