My Thing

I was eating chocolate and you were sniffing cocaine And one of us was as high as it can be Your good is tainted with your old bad But I'm the one shedding skin And you're voting for the right to keep on catching your own tail Come on, let's have a bath I'll add rosemary I'm supposed to be born in a month I looked in the sky, it was full of friends This time I'm ready to cut my leg if it stops me from flying I was just 11 at the time So you're doing it but with a taint of shame Come on, let's have a bath I'll add rosemary I'm supposed to be born in a month It was a glorious moment But you came to me crying And what you did to me is now my thing So they say
