You foolish little waste of time
You pucker up like lemon-lime
I'm sinking into your corduroy
I saw you kissing the paper boy
You're smart enough to keep it light
You call me up with a landmine
Driving drunk with a baby in the trunk
And the whole town knows you're no good,
You're no good, you're no good,
Hardly ever say 'yes'
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You got a poison candy heart
(Intro riff again, second verse same as the first)
You're serious, but wonderful
Reckless as a chainsaw
Thrilling in the bedroom
And I'm average in so many ways
You only want what's best for you
I do too, I do too, I do too
Hardly ever say 'yes'
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You got a poison candy heart
You got a poison candy heart
Hardly ever say 'yes'
Oh baby try the sofa,
Who's gonna clean this up?
Probably me, like I always do
You're happiest when I'm not
I can live with that
You try to kill us apart
You got a poison candy heart
