You’ve got your yellow finger marks
You’ve got your hair all freighted in knots
At least I can say I got you worried
More than you ever did for me

But these drunk nights out on the town
Are the most convenient ways of self expression
That I have ever known
So don’t worry, you’ll get a call from me

And I tell myself it’s not me
Just to make you feel better
I tell myself it’s not me
But that just makes me feel worse

I just want to scream and shout my lungs out
I want to put a new hole in this wall
But I’ll just drink until my veins curls up
To stop the alcohol flow
Because baby, that’s called self control

I see now you wanted to get caught
Leaving the bed sheets all tangled and tossed
You wanted a reason to get out
But to get out of what

Nicotine never tastes the same
As when you’re trying to pass the blame
So keep that lighter at the ready
Because I know you’ll just blow smoke
When I come home I’ll be blowin’ smoke

And I tell myself it’s not me
Just to make you feel better
I tell myself it’s not me
But that just makes me feel worse

I just want to scream and shout my lungs out
I want to put a new hole in this wall
But I’ll just drink until my veins curls up
To stop the alcohol flow
Because baby, that’s called self control

And I’ll toast this drink to you
Because you’re so good at what you do
And I’ll stumble down the street
And I’ll be loud as I preach
Because that’s just what you do

I just want to scream and shout my lungs out
I want to put a new hole in this wall
But I’ll just drink until my veins curls up
To stop the alcohol flow
Because baby, that’s called self control
