Kiss Off by Violent Femmes

I need someone a person to talk to
Someone who'd care to love
Could it be you could it be you
Situation gets rough then i start to panic
It's not enough it's just a habit
Hey kid your sick well darling this is it
You can all just kiss off into the air
Behind my back i can see them stare
They'll hurt me bad but i won't mind
They'll hurt me bad they do it all the time
Yeah yeah they do it all the time
I hope you know this will go down
On your permanent record
Oh yeah well don't get so distressed
Did i happen to mention that i'm impressed
I take one one one cause you left me and
Two two two for my family and
3 3 3 for my heartache and
4 4 4 for my headaches and
5 5 5 for my lonely and
6 6 6 for my sorrow and
7 7 for no tomorrow and
8 8 i forget what 8 was for and
9 9 9 for a lost god and
10 10 10 10 for everything
Everything everything everything
