You Started On Me

What are you doing?,
who the heck are you?,
up in my face,
trying to intimidate.

You better back up,
get out of my face,
go sit down son,
it's the safest place.

The cheek of some people,
think there all that,
have a few drinks,
now wears a superman hat.

Your about to write a check,
you want be able to cash,
there's only so much I'll take,
before I attack.

I'm a fair man,
pretty tolerate too,
but don't push your luck,
there a limit to what you can do.

Then don't blame me,
for what happens next,
you started on me,
I'm just gonna finish it.
