Lyrics
Crawled to work at five every morning
Slapped some water on my face
Hit the ground running for the money
Just a nag in the human race
All us jokers choking on our stomachs
All the men?s rooms stink with weed
All these wide-eyed children of dependence
Having their way with me
I was doing fine, girl
I was doing fine
Why?d you have to be so nice and spoil everything
Just when I?d got things right, didn?t need anybody
Why?d you have to be so nice, make a man out of me
Here you are sitting by the fire
Your cat up on your knees
Looking so damn cute every minute
I can?t get a second?s peace
Yeah, I guess I?m lost in you, mama
I?ve let you infect my dreams
And I give it up every moment
You?re having your way with me
Girl, I was doing fine
Why?d you have to be so nice and spoil everything
Just when I?d got things right, didn?t need anybody
Why?d you have to be so nice, make a man out of me
Every day with you
Seems I open up even wider
Every day with you
And loving you has sent way up, so much higher
Than I ever thought love could do
Why?d you have to be so nice and spoil everything
Just when I?d got things right, didn?t need anybody
Why?d you have to be so nice, make a man out of me
