Ben Folds Five - Selfless, Cold and Composed lyrics

rate me

I said what you wanted to hear

and what I wanted to say

so I will take it back

Are all the dishes intact?

Let them be broken, broken

CHORUS

It's easy to be

easy and free

when it doesn't mean anything

you remain selfless, cold and

composed

You've done me no favor

to call and be nice

telling me I

can take anything I like

you don't owe me to be so

polite

you've done no wrong

you've done no wrong

get out of my sight

CHORUS

Come on baby now throw me

a right to the chin

Don't just stare like

you never cared

I know you did

But you just smile

like a bank teller

blankly telling me

have a nice life

Come on baby now

throw me a right

to the chin

Just one sign that could

show me that you give a

shit

But you just smile politely

and I grow weaker and I

said what you wanted to hear

and what I wanted to say

so I will take it back

CHORUS
