Scratch paper and standard staples
Remind me of you, Kate
Aggressive young office clerk, I like to watch you work
You had a way of peeling all my deadened feelings
A college degree and a painted sea
Hang on my wall, I hate it all
Please take it away until I see the grey
Of the walls of the cell where I stay all day
For every dream fulfilled, there's three I've k**ed
Call me corporate fool
Everyone's my stepping stone
Sexy legs and hips, broad painted lips
Affectionately inquiring of me
It's five o'clock, I'd like to go for a walk
To the corner bar, so we could get drunk and talk
How could I ever say no to a girl
Whose skin is white as mountain snow
Who'd ever think she'd be
As evil and greedy as me
Call me your stepping stone
The hair down your back was pure cold black
Like the heart in your chest that caused my unrest
When you used me and got the rewards from your plot
I was fired soon after, I still hear your laughter
Scratch paper and standard staples
Remind me of her clerk
Good-looking young office boy who was always so coy
He used her and tossed her like a two-dollar toy
He got what he wanted the way we all did
Stab a knife into her trusting back
He'll get what he wanted the way we all did
Getting?
What goes around comes around
That's the irony I've found
If you think of me, call and see how much I really hate you, Katie
