Selfish Ways

We think about making a score
We think about a little bit more
While you suffer our selfish ways
While I look at your selfish face
Oh we can’t think of anything else
So you suffer us alone on your shelf
Then you whisper your selfless praise
While you suffer our selfish ways

Oh, I’m sorry but we’ve gotta breathe
And I know it’s not easy
Through all of these days
You chose my selfish ways
Oh, I know I’m not so sure
And I might not be so pure
But through all of these days
You suffered my selfish ways

And you love it!

Darling, I’ll bring you fire wood
But I will burn your house down
(And I will follow him
I’ll take his wood away)
Darling, I’ll bring you fire wood
But I will burn your house down
(And I will follow him down
I’ll take his wood away)

Oh yeah, we think about making a score
And we think about a little bit more
While you suffer our selfish ways
While I look at your elfish face
Oh, we can’t think of anything else
So you suffer us alone on the shelf
And I’d be better, I’d be better, I’d be better…
If you let go of my tether

Oh, my darling, I’ll bring you fire wood
But I will burn your house down
(And I will follow him down
I’ll take his wood away)
Darling, I’ll bring you fire wood
But I will burn your house down
(And I will follow him down
I’ll take his wood away)

To the ground.

Oh, I’m sorry
Yeah, I really am
If I cut your heart to ribbons
I’m not really that kind of man

But you love it!

Oh, my darling, I’ll bring you fire wood
But I will burn your house down
(And I will follow him down
I’ll take his wood away)
Darling, I’ll bring you fire wood
But I will only let you down
(And I will follow him
I’ll take his wood away)
