I'd Probably Kill You

(album: Handguns - 2011)

I'd probably kill you
If I wasn't already wasted
Might want to regret this
We'll take the chance and not forget how
I put you out of everybody's way
You're just so damn fabulous
You didn't even think of saving something

I want to be just like you
But I can't sing
You're something I thought of first
You just didn't make it
You ended up just like me
But so much better

Can't keep my hands on
The things I've learned off a long neck bottle
Why race in circles
Around the women I know and the things I bought them
How I'd pay to someday find you
Two steps behind
With your hands tied asking for something

I want to be just like you
But I can't sing
You're something I thought of first
You just didn't make it
You ended up just like me
But so much better

Might burn your house down
If I was somehow sure your things were in there
Wouldn't want to bring you any more unneeded sympathy
Bet you've never struggled on your own
Cause your people love you
They would never dream of letting you suffer

I want to be just like you
But I can't sing
You're something I thought of first
You just didn't make it
You ended up just like me
But so much better

I want to be just like you
But I can't sing
You're something I thought of first
You just didn't make it
You ended up just like me
But so much better

I'd probably kill you
