|
Once when I was all alone, |
|
I called you, and you weren't at home |
|
My heart fell like a stone, to the ground |
|
To the ground, to the ground |
|
Why, when morn had dawned on me, |
|
And anger grew like ecstasy, |
|
And Leda threw the swan on me and I fell to the ground, |
|
To the ground, to the ground |
|
-Chorus- |
|
Oh, don't say "I want you", |
|
Don't stay this way, believe me, |
|
I wasn't trying to play the game |
|
Where someone's to blame, |
|
I'll stay the same 'til you change your mind |
|
And you'll change your mind |
|
I could have broken you, |
|
I should have spoken for you |
|
You should have seen it was turning me on |
|
Don't you know it's true? |
|
There are worse things, perverse things |
|
You should answer when the phone rings |
|
There are worse things I could do |
|
Once when I was all alone, |
|
I could not find the telephone |
|
So instead I burned your pretty home to the ground |
|
To the ground, to the ground |
|
-Chorus- |
