If you hate me why'd you come here baby? Guess that's something that I'll never know If I'm so bad why you still here, honey? Ain't there somewhere better off to go? 'Cause I had a bad dream that this went on forever And I wept 'til I was old and grey I try so hard and it doesn't get better And I'm running out of things to say I don't know why you stay You're the one with the problem every day And it's safe to say You need to make your mind Or just go you own way If you choose the right words then the girl, she stays If you love me why you see less of me Why do my words put you off so much? You say I'm cocky and you ain't happy you got me And you think that I am losing touch Sometimes all morning you will call me really boring And say that we have nothing to do Wish you were happy and weren't always mad at me 'Cause I like spending my time with you I don't know why I stay Your distaste for me seems to grow everyday Pick a fight, run away And hopefully I'll put you in your place If you choose the right words then the girl, she stays You've got a problem when I leave A problem when I get back If you don't like my songs I'm afraid of how you'll react
