Lucinda Williams - Buttercup lyrics

rate me

br>

You talk about the junk you do like you talk about climbing trees

You live the life of a little kid with bruises on your knees

You will never cop to the damage that's been done

But you will never stop 'cause it's too much fun

Now you want somebody to be your buttercup

Good luck finding your buttercup

You already sucked me dry, can't do it anymore honey

You roughed me up and made me cry, now you wanna borrow money

You say you feel like a failure and you wish you could take it all back

But honey I gotta tell ya, it's a little too late for that

And now you want somebody to be your buttercup

Good luck finding your buttercup

One reason after the other you're always feeling sad

Maybe you couldn't talk to your mother or stand up to your dad

You want my forgiveness and that I will give to you

But you got yourself into this mess and there's nothing I can do

And now you want somebody to be your buttercup

Good luck finding your buttercup

The first time I saw you, you made me melt

The last time I saw you, you hit below the belt

You might have a beautiful mouth, you might have beautiful eyes

But sooner or later it all goes south when you tell too many lies

And now you want somebody to be your buttercup

Good luck finding your buttercup

Good luck finding your buttercup

Good luck finding your buttercup
