Corduroy - Lyrics by Pearl Jam


Lyrics
The waiting drove me mad...you're finally here and I'm a mess
I take your entrance back...can't let you roam inside my head
I don't want to take what you can give...I would rather starve than eat your bread...I would rather run but I can't walk...
Guess I'll lie alone just like before...I'll take the firmest path...oh, and I must refuse your test
A-push me and I will resist...this behavior's not unique
I don't want to hear from those who know...
They can buy, but can't put on my clothes...I don't want to limp for them to walk...
Never would have known of me before...I don't want to be held in your debt...
And I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed...
And I'm already cut up and half dead...I'll end up alone like I began...
Everything has changed, absolutely nothing's changed
Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture
I don't want to take what you can give...I would rather starve than eat your breast...
All the things that others want for me...
Can't buy what I want because it's free... (2x)
Can't be what you want because i'm...I ain't s'posed to be just fun
Oh, to live and die, let it be done
I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began...
It's your move now...I thought you were a friend, but I guess i, I guess I hate you...
