I keep her anger cocked and ready Tucked in her stylin' holster I draw the line in pretty colors Just to dare some fool to cross her Keep her righteousness on simmer Though it's tastier on a boil Her tongue stays nice and sharp The tighter she stays coiled I love to let her lay around Blowin' deadlines once again Stock her up with lame excuses For things she meant to send I make her blow her diet 'Til she slips to full-on binge Then I up her shame about it 'Cause she looks so cute unhinged I got her where she is today But do I get respect? She claims she's so above it now She keeps all that mess in check Recovery's a fickle beast You better stick to what you know And I'm always ridin' shotgun, baby Just waitin' for you to you to blow Don't matter how much time you got It's still a slippery ledge You gotta keep an eye on every step When there's no more bets to hedge You can whine and boast, and cut and run And fall down on your knees But if it ain't the full surrender, baby Mmm, it's all the same to me It's funny how a little doubt'll muddle up her way It only takes some darker thoughts to wreck her sunny day I let her draw love close enough to see she really cares But no way do they get inside, in case there's no one there No one there I got her where she is today But do I get respect? She claims she's so above it now She keeps all that mess in check Recovery's a fickle beast You better stick to what you know 'Cause I'm always ridin' shotgun, baby Just waitin' for you to you blow Mm-hmm Da-na-da Waitin' for you, baby Waitin' for you to blow
