All around the room your things are placed And next to you he fills the space And so it seems your saving grace is only saving face The pictures of the two of you on holiday, on honeymoon You thought that he was wanting you, But he was only wanting you to Let him off the hook He was your imaginary friend, You were partners 'til the end Then something bends, and then it breaks, your worst mistake Accepting enemies on bended knees; a litany of tragedies You're vexed, it seems you're hexed and after sex he expects You'll let him off the hook 'til Something that you heard while you were sleeping left you Shaken while he stirred. When you awaken you will Make him eat his words right off the hook... And line, every time The credit card receipts, the dirty sheets The souvenirs of men who cheat It all makes sense - with each offense You wanted to believe him He could get away with murder one, And you would clean the smoking gun With every crime, you bought each line, But not this time, you'll make him Eat his words 'cause Something that you heard while you were sleeping left you Shaken while he stirred When you awaken you will Make him eat his, make him eat his Words while he's alone, 'cause you won't be around and From now on the phone stays off the hook And line, every time Hook and line, every time
