You smell like cigarettes and violets You invite me in but won't tell me your name Your hands held all the aces Kings and queens but still you lost the game Messed up like a sunset Too close to be a star Messed up like an actor That got stuck doing porn Messed up skipping dinner Messed up like a song Right turn in the wrong lane A quick fix but all your love's in vain Best schools worst grades Sold out but baby forgot to get paid Messed up like the father Who couldn't see the son Messed up like an outlaw who blamed it on the gun Messed up like an in-law Who did what one might We're messed up here tonight I'm writing in a restaurant A stranger taking orders asked me what I want It seems Messed up like a martyr Straight or on the rocks Messed up like my mother Crazy like a fox Messed up like the sunlight Too early in my eyes Messed up like a prizefight At least you could've tried Messed up like the system You used to call a sin Messed up like an earthquake You couldn't keep it in Messed up like a birthday I can't recall the date But you still love to hate
