Lyrics

We expected something, something better than before We expected something more Do you really think you can just put it in a safe behind a painting Lock it up and leave? Do you really think you can just put it in a safe behind a painting? Lock it up and leave? Walk away now And you're gonna start a war Whatever went away, I'll get it over now I'll get money, I'll get funny again Whatever went away, I'll get it over now I'll get money, I'll get funny again Walk away now And you're gonna start a war We expected something, something better than before We expected something more You were always weird But I never had to hold you by the edges like I do now You were always weird But I never had to hold you by the edges like I do now Walk away now And you're gonna start a war Whatever went away, I'll get it over now I'll get money, I'll get funny again Whatever went away, I'll get it over now I'll get money, I'll get funny again Walk away now And you're gonna start a war Walk away now And you're gonna start a war
