It's been ten long years since I've been home
I've been waiting here with nowhere to go
It's an occupation I don't like
But it pays the rent and turns on the light

I told you so
It has to be
Cut loose news and runaway with me
We'll go out every night
I'll be there by your side
And we'll all get high down the ...' side

If i hate the job and I hate the place
But I must stay for your pretty face
It's a fucking reaction I can fix
Cut me with those free ___ tricks(?)

I told you so
It's a crazy world
For a mixed up guy
And a no good girl

And I told you so
It's a crazy world
For a mixed up guy
And a no good girl

(Take her, take the world)

I told you so
It has to be
Cut loose news and runaway (runaway) with me
We'll go out every night
I'll be there by your side
And we'll all get high down the ...' side

(Take the world)
