Take Me Apart

(album: Eat Your Paisley! - 1986)

After two years
And two hundred thousand tears
To have it end this way
The people on the hill
I know they're up there still
'Cause we were giants in those days

And I was always the one you said
Could never adjust
Well, look at me now girl
And eat my dust because

You always got what you wanted
Right from the start
Now finish the job
Take me apart

The people at the college
God they laughed and shook their heads
They remember us living, but
They would have loved to seen us dead

And you were always the one who said
I could never get along
Well, look at me now girl
'Cause I'm still strong you know

You always got what you wanted
Right from the start
Now finish the job
Take me apart

I stole
I lied
I cried
For you
I nearly died
For you

You always got what you wanted
Right from the start
Now finish the job
Take me apart
Take me apart
Take me apart

You always got what you wanted
Right from the start
Now finish the job
Take me apart
