My 16th Apology

Lyrics

[Intro] The things I said about you Maybe we could work it out someday [Verse 1] Things were going pretty well 'til I died On that sunny afternoon When you broke down before my eyes Well I got a streak of meanness (Oh yeah) A clumsy way of speaking And I don't know where I get it from It must run in my family [Chorus] Do I have to go down on my knees? This is my sixteenth apology to you With friends like me who needs enemies? [Verse 2] I got a river inside the size of my rage Which is really something else When you think of my tender age Well I got a way about me (Oh yeah) But it's hard for me to see it (Oh yeah) And I don't know when I'm in the wrong Why am I so hard to please? [Chorus] This is my sixteenth apology to you Do I have to go down on my knees for you? (Yeah) With friends like me who needs enemies? [Bridge] The things I said about you Were all said yesterday I didn't mean to hurt you Maybe we could work it out someday [Verse 3] Now I got a streak of meanness (Oh yeah) A clumsy way of speaking And I don't know when I'm in the wrong Why am I so hard to please? [Chorus] Do I have to go down on my knees? This is my sixteenth apology to you With friends like me who needs enemies? [Outro] Didn't your mother ever tell you To err is human, to forgive is divine? Oh well, I'll see you in the next life
