Eels — Bad News lyrics

Lyrics

Guess IЂ™m doing something wrong
Never feel right in these shoes
A pocket full of matches and a head full of flames
Got to warn you that IЂ™m bad news
She tugs me in and then she screams
One day you will have to choose
Either take care of me or take care of you
And donЂ™t pretend youЂ™re not bad news
Come on now IЂ™ll take you home
You donЂ™t have a thing to lose
But stick around long enough and youЂ™ll find out
I am nothing but bad news
You can never change where youЂ™re from
No matter who I will accuse
Gonna get on with a better life
And one day I wonЂ™t be bad news
Cause itЂ™s the same
Every day when I wake up ItЂ™s the same
In the way that you
Gave me up In the middle of a swan dive
And I was soaring down
Perfect and slow
