Shakespear's Sister - I Don't Care lyrics

rate me

(Fahey/Detroit/Feldman/Shearmur) 4:16<br />

<br />

walking through the rooms in my head<br />

i came across your image<br />

you looked at me with that sweet smile and said<br />

something they won't let me repeat<br />

we hurt the ones we love the most<br />

it's a subtle form of compliment<br />

<br />

i don't care if you talk about me<br />

i don't care if you write it out in stone<br />

whenever i fall i land on my feet<br />

i don't care, i just don't care<br />

<br />

mark the spot you hate with an x<br />

then shoot your bow and arrow<br />

do your worst get it all off your chest<br />

i'll hold my breath and swallow<br />

we hurt the ones we love the most<br />

it's a subtle form of discipline<br />

<br />

i don't care if you talk about me<br />

i don't care if you write it out in stone<br />

whenever i fall i land on my feet<br />

i don't care, i just don't care<br />

<br />

i don't care if you act like a queen<br />

i don't care if you take it out on me<br />

i've got 9 lives and i land on my feet<br />

i don't care, i just don't care<br />

<br />

[out of the alley, i spoke came victoria]<br />

[queen victoria sitting shocked upon the rocking horse]<br />

[of a wave said to the laureate]<br />

[this minx a course as sharp as any lynx]<br />

[and blacker deeper than the drinks]<br />

[as any hottentot without remorse]<br />

[for the lynx said she and the drinks you can see]<br />

[are hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me]<br />

[hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me]<br />

<br />

i don't care if you talk about me<br />

i don't care if you write it out in stone<br />

whenever i fall i land on my feet<br />

i don't care, i just don't care<br />

<br />

i don't care if you act like a queen<br />

i don't care if you take it out on me<br />

i've got 9 lives and i land on my feet<br />

i don't care, i just don't care
