Intentional Infliction Of Emotional Distress

(album: Footsoldier In The Moonlight - 1993)

Can't stop, can't eat
My lawyer wants me to
Won't take it on contingency
He's afraid we'll lose
I can't live without you
Guess there's nothing left to do
I'm so damn in love with you
That's why I have to sue

Deformation, malice, and duress
Mitigate my deep unhappiness
For walking past my bedroom
In that little red dress

Intentional infliction of emotional distress
Sue me, sue you baby
Sue me, sue you baby
Sue you, sue me baby
For intentional infliction of emotional distress

No doubt about it
The judge is on my side
He saw you in the backroom
Before we went to trial
Dancing with the baliff
Now that may not be a crime
But together with the evidence
You're gonna do time

Spare me your tears, darling
Come on, confess
You're a big bad wolf
In a little red dress
Come on baby
You've made such a mess

Cold flesh, hot blood
The way you were a cheating
I could a killed you baby
And I woulda had a reason
No jury in the world
Would have blamed me for leaving

You're an old fashioned
Heart teasing
Sneaky little demon

Spare me your tears, darling
Come on, confess
You're a big bad wolf
In a little red dress
Come on baby
You've made such a mess

For deliberate depiction
Of a bodily addiction
Intentional infliction of emotional distress
