Kill You Off
Lion In The Living Room
I walked in the room
I set my smile so
You leaned on my shoulder
Whispering "Why'd you bother to show"
Wherever I go
You're always there
Telling me I'm not good enough
That voice in my ear, but -
I will kill you off
I will kill you with kindness
I'll be sweetly tough
I've listened to you for years
but that's enough, enough, enough
You come in disguise
As vicious nun
As a bouncing perky bride
As my nagging mom
When I'm singing the softest lullaby
You say I'm too loud
I can do one small good thing
And you say I'm too proud, but -
I will kill you off...
BRIDGE
Well I don't like how people say we could be twins
I don't like how you never let me win
And I don't know how this sick stuff begins
But oh, I'm on to you
Now I can shut you up no matter what you say or try or do
I will kill you off...
