lyrics

Tell her how it is don't spare your blows this time
This shit has gone on way too long
And you're the one to blame

Tell her that you're noble, that you search for truth
You're Clark Kent waiting for his booth
She's no Lois Lane

She's had it with your sonnets and your roving eye,
Your peddler's charm your cheap disguise
Happy Halloween

All your maybes got her thinkin' she's not gonna stay
Don't you even say "Oh baby, please be patient"
You're not gonna change

You promised her your heart but it's no valentine
You've built your castle in the sky,
and it's a lonely home

You're pleading from the rubble and it's awfully sad
But your last stand ain't Stalingrad
It's gone on too long

All your maybes got her thinkin' she's not gonna stay
Don't you even say "Oh baby, please be patient"
You're not gonna change

Do want to know the worst of it, my friend, my boy?
You'd promised less, delivered more
She'd love you anyway
