    So sorry, thanks again
    Jerk, because sometimes I forget
    just where to contribute
    And just who is who
    Dust the rigormortis off
    From shock of seeing you
    Me without a clue
    Shorty get to know a way to find a better day
    Battle of the century
    My opponent rocks just watching the box
    All waiting for a turn to get something through
    Something way too true
    Hanging my head low
    On the side towards the light
    Simple to me as the way that you left last night
    Figure out just how much more of this I can take
