Put On Those Rose Colored Glasses

source

Hey, baby, don't be like that

When I told you there was no one else,

I wasn't really lying

You see,

I meant that there was no one else

worth mentioning,

No one else

worth getting you all upset about

See?

And it's over anyway, so

let's just forget all about it, ok?
Aw, honey

don't be like that

You know you're my girl

and "I gotta work late"

sounds so much prettier than

"I'd rather pull out all my teeth with your tweezers

than watch "Dancing With the Stars" again!"

I mean, do you really want me to say,

"I'd rather be shot through the face with bullets than have you kiss me"? or

"Your meandering hands feel like spiders crawling all over my skin"?

Yeah, I say, "Plant one here, baby!" and I smile

even though it hurts

C'mon, sweetie

don't go changing the locks again

I bought you some roses 

Naw, I didn't buy her any

She doesn't even like roses, 

and yours cost me way more!

Let's just go to bed, huh?

I'll pretend your dismal thrusting gets me off

just like I always do

I'm done with her

It's all about you now, baby

Wild horses couldn't drag me away, just like the song

I love you, baby

You believe me, right?
