Oh well, I feel so loose tonight, I might fall to pieces So be prepared to sweep me out the door And I might be horizontal by the time the music ceases So I think I'll get acquainted with the floor Oh, I was trying to get away from the things that I always do Hello, floorboards, once again, how are you? Lip service, well, that's all you'll ever get from me Well, how could you believe I'll take you seriously? With your cheap rewards, your blackmail and your comical rage Just remember, you'll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage All the signposts on this road that point one way
Don't act like you're above me, just look at your shoes I'll turn the light out now 'cause there's nothing more to say And it's all been lost before, so there's nothing to lose Oh, but you could say that you love me very painlessly I would've done the same for you, oh, but you said to me Lip service, well, that's all you'll ever get from me Well, how could you believe I'd take you seriously? With your cheap rewards, your blackmail and your comical rage Just remember, you'll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage Just remember, you'll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage
