Kissing You Goodbye
I've learned to turn the other cheek is not what love's about
I've turned mine so many times that I damned near wore 'em out
I've grown used to your abuse and I thought I'd never quit
But I woke up this morning couldn't find my shiv a git
You've always liked to play your games well I got one for you
Pretend we're playing checkers girl and it's your time to move
You'll find your suitcase on the porch and the taxi in the drive
So get your tongue out of my mouth I'm kissing you goodbye
I see you've finally made it home you been out all night
Your artificial hair's a mess and your clothes don't fit you right
I've given and forgiven till there ain't nothing left
But all you gave was just enough to satisfy yourself
I can smell that whisky in your hair and sen-sen on your breath
If you ever tried to tell the truth you'd choke yourself to death
I don't want your nasty kisses and don't tell me no more lies
Get your tongue out of my mouth I'm kissing you goodbye
Get your tongue out of my mouth I'm kissing you goodbye
I've turned mine so many times that I damned near wore 'em out
I've grown used to your abuse and I thought I'd never quit
But I woke up this morning couldn't find my shiv a git
You've always liked to play your games well I got one for you
Pretend we're playing checkers girl and it's your time to move
You'll find your suitcase on the porch and the taxi in the drive
So get your tongue out of my mouth I'm kissing you goodbye
I see you've finally made it home you been out all night
Your artificial hair's a mess and your clothes don't fit you right
I've given and forgiven till there ain't nothing left
But all you gave was just enough to satisfy yourself
I can smell that whisky in your hair and sen-sen on your breath
If you ever tried to tell the truth you'd choke yourself to death
I don't want your nasty kisses and don't tell me no more lies
Get your tongue out of my mouth I'm kissing you goodbye
Get your tongue out of my mouth I'm kissing you goodbye
