The Paper Chase
So, How Goes the Good Fight
This is a little song
A little song about trust

Don't expect me
To fight the good fight for you
And don't expect me
To quote myself in quips, not for you, not for you
So, when exactly and precisely
Did I promise all the world to you
And there in fact, let's be exact
Who says that you're the one I'd give it to!

I'll take your legs, I'll take your arms
I'll take your breath in the night
Then give away myself in bloody strips
And Barbie doll eyes
Uh huh, okay
I hope you're proud of yourself

(I hope you're proud of yourself
I hope you're proud of yourself
I hope you're proud of yourself)
I hope you're proud of yourself

And oh, the city's too big
You say it invents all the fire in you
Meanwhile I'm burning alive
Under the flame that it has lit for you
So don't expect me
To break this all down for you
And don't expect me
To fight the good fight for you
I'll take your legs, I'll take your arms
I'll take your breath in the night
Then give away myself in bloody strips
And Barbie doll eyes

The lips, the hips
Eclipsed by the barbie doll hands
The lips, the hips
Eclipsed by the barbie doll eyes
Can't you see what you're doing to me?

Don't expect me
Don't expect me
Don't expect me
Don't expect me
Don't expect me

The pennies in my hand
The scissors on the bed for you
I've got a big surprise for you
The apple in my mouth for you
(I know you'll get what you deserve)
And all these dirty hands
That built the ugly things for you
They trigger, jerk, and turn on you
And slide around the neck for you, for you
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
Alright, alright

I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
I know you'll get what you deserve
