Hey girl I never said I'd be there every night When I come home late it's fisticuffs till light Now you slap me with a summons I must serve When you caught me with your friend, you cut me at the nerve
Stop right there, 'cause you were wrong Do you believe in consequence? I gave you all I have, and for so long I believe in consequence
When did I promise that I always be Wasn't it clear, it clouded up your memory But still you tell me that it's all that I deserve When you swung the gavel 'round, you struck me at the nerve
The straight and narrow is another deadly curve When you drove your steely knife in, you struck me at the nerve
