Bear Trap

Listen close as I sing you this song It's a story of love and how it went wrong Maybe "love" isn't quite the right word As the story goes on, the lines get blurred Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da It starts with two children, young and naïve With the best of intentions, our lives interweave Slowly you start to convince me that My friends and my family all you want you dead Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da Then you manipulate, turn it into An obligation to take care of you I wanted a lover and someone to hold You wanted a parent who you could control Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da I tried once to leave you, then I tried once more I guess third time's the charm but you're still at my door When I offered to help you get back on your feet You proceeded to take advantage of me Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da You're a bear trap and you've got me good All I've got are nail clippers to cut off my foot You're a bear trap and you've got me good All I've got are nail clippers to cut off my foot Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Now you're in my apartment and spend all my dough While you fuck your new boyfriend and make sure I know And I wish I could miss you, I wish that I cared But I'm dying to get you out of my hair Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da You think you're entitled to everyone's shit But you don't want to work for any of it And I can't wait to see that confidence When you finally have to face real consequences Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da Oh I stand up for myself and you call it controlling You won't talk to me unless you need consoling You're a shit stain on the shoe of my life So get the fuck out of my sight Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da You're a bear trap and you've got me good All I've got are nail clippers to cut off my foot You're a bear trap and you've got me good All I've got are nail clippers to cut off my foot Ya da-da-da da da da da Ya da-da da Ya da-da-da da da da da
