Lyrics
Slap me as hard as you want
Aren't I supposed to offer the other cheek?
I mean really what's the point?
I keep coming back, perfect form and technique
Is anybody listening?
Please say you're listening
And are you seeing this?
How am I okay with it?
Repugnant recidivist
You'll get away with it
Oh, you'll get away with it cuz
All I do
Is cover for you
So you can beat me til
I'm red white and blue
No matter what you do
I'll crawl back to you
To red white and blue
Red white and blue
So go ahead, ask me why I stay
I'll say it's because I love the way
He's well dressed and charming
Spangled and darling
Vast and sprawling
What more could a boy need
Oh please oh please oh please
I remember back when I was thirteen
I thought you were flawless
Utterly spotless
Rugged and lawless
Harmless and clawless
But now all I do
Is cover for you
So you can beat me til
I'm red white and blue
No matter what you do
I'll crawl back to you
To red white and blue
Red white and blue
All I do
Is cover for you
So you can beat me til
I'm red white and blue
No matter what you do
I'll crawl back to you
To red white and blue
Red white and blue
