“When you get home there’s gonna be a big present waiting on your bedside table”, you said It’s your Stanley knife smile cutting into me

That’s why I cover my ears when you talk to me That’s why That’s why I cover my ears when you talk to me That’s why

So you sit there sister getting cold and lonely Camel lights to keep you warm You’re in a great big car now Polluting that coffee cup that’s never looked so good It’s the way you say my name like you’re joking

That’s why I cover my ears when you talk to me That’s why That’s why I cover my ears when you talk to me That’s why

You’re not gonna get very far with a smile like that

That’s why I cover my ears when you talk to me That’s why That’s why I cover my ears when you talk to me That’s why
