Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Walkin' through the rooms in my head
I came across your image
You looked at me with that sweet smile and said
Something they won't let me repeat
[Verse 2]
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of compliment
[Verse 3]
I don't care if you talk about me
(I don't care if you write it out in stone)
Whenever I fall, I land on my feet
(I don't care) I just don't care now
[Verse 4]
Mark the spot you hate with an X
Then shoot your bow and arrow
(Shoot your bow and arrow)
Do your worst, get it all off your chest
I'll hold my breath and swallow
[Verse 5]
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of discipline
[Verse 6]
I don't care if you talk about me
(I don't care if you write it out in stone)
Whenever I fall, I land on my feet
(I don't care) I just don't care now
[Verse 7]
I don't care if you act like a queen
(I don't care if you take it out on me)
I've got nine lives and I land on my feet
(I don't care) I just don't care now
[Verse 8]
In a borealic iceberg came Victoria
Queen Victoria, sitting shocked upon a rocking horse of a wave
Said to the laureate
"This minx, of course, is sharp as any lynx
And blacker, deeper than the drinks
As any hottentot without remorse
For the minx that she and the drinks you can see
Are hot as any hottentot"
(And not the goods for me)
Hot as any hottentot
And not the goods for me
[Verse 9]
I don't care if you talk about me
(I don't care if you write it out in stone)
Whenever I fall, I land on my feet
(I don't care) I just don't care now
[Verse 10]
I don't care if you act like a queen
(I don't care if you take it out on me)
I've got nine lives, and I land on my feet
(I don't care) I just don't care now
