I Hurt You

I been crying like a woman Because I'm mad, mad, mad like a man If you'd been in the s.s. in '43 You'd've been kicked out for cruelty I hurt you 'cause you hurt me So I hurt you 'cause you hurt me I been wondering about your dependency Your idea of defiance is a modern day mystery Arms and chest are cold When your back is on fire And the only time you come clean Is when you're talking to your buyer I hurt you 'cause you hurt me So I hurt you 'cause you hurt me Forget our philosophies That we admired when we were young And our popular points of view They can't mean much or nothing Or something or anything 'cause we can't say I love you I hurt you 'cause you hurt me So I hurt you 'cause you hurt me Happy birthday, darling and thank you for the schooling Your correction mistress warned me and she wasn't fooling Never trust a user with your television overnight When the show he wants to video is dallas on a tuesday night Don't try to paint your masterpiece under artificial light
