Love Me, Just Leave Me Alone

Lyrics

I saw you standing there
 You had gold dust in your pocket
 And you combed barbed wire through your hair
 You thought i didn't notice
 The skin on your teeth had a tear
 To make me notice you started to shout
 Then you and all your minions
 Started flapping your tiny arms all about
 They said you were a wise man
 When did they teach wise men to pout?
 I tried to forget you
 But you tied bells to your name
 They jingled every time i thought of you
 Without shame
 I tried to be unlovable
 Why couldn't you do the same?
 Chorus
 What's the matter?
 Does your love need a home?
 Alright then
 Love me, just leave me alone
 Your mother was a wolf bite
 Your daddy was a cigarette
 Your brother was a rosebud
 Crossbred with a car wreck
 Your sister was a stockbroker
 But you ain't nothing but a turtleneck
 Chorus
 It's not your little boy smile
 It's not your little boy name
 It's those big boy hands that are the ones to blame
 I tried to be unlovable
 Why couldn't you do the same?
 Chorus
