my struggle with heroin

electric six

i was on the inside looking out for you

you were on the outside looking in

you talked a lot about original sin

and you were only nineteen baby

i like to talk about your fantasies

i like to talk about your dreams

you like to talk about my struggle with heroin

and why i look so sleepy

oh yeah

i'm just another trendy creature of habit

oh yeah

my heart's here for you so reach out and grab it

oh yeah

you can have your cake and eat it

what's wrong with you

so i've got a couple of problems

but who doesn't have a few?

but i don't understand why i don't understand you

i don't understand why i don't understand you

took you to a fancy restaurant

go to place with no escape

i had a little run in with your ignoramus

saw your ex-boyfriend

he looked me up and down and over

he searched me up and down the sides

he tried to break every bone in my hand

and undress you late at night

oh yeah

i just love we've got these stupid complications

oh yeah

i? drugs and accusations

oh yeah

you can have your cake and eat it

what's wrong with you

so i've got a couple of problems

but who doesn't have a few?

but i don't understand why i don't understand you

i don't understand why i don't understand you

this could be the time sister

to be sisterly to me

i follow you into the fire

and you owe me

yeah

oh yeah

you can have your cake and eat it

what's wrong with you

so i've got a couple of problems

but who doesn't have a few?

but i don't understand why i don't understand you

i just don't understand why i don't understand you
