I'm sleeping in my underwear
I'm not really sleeping
I'm just thinking of you

I'm praying, but not down on my knees
I do it in the shower
Where the water feels so warm and clean

You took me into battle
You took me into battle
And you cut my throat
Yeah

You cut my throat, yeah

I'm crying again
Then the phone rings
It aint you

I hate the blues
I don't like the blues
I don't listen to the blues

Why am i singing the blues?
Hey, why am i singing the blues?

Cause you cut my throat, yeah

"I think i tried to be nice --
I did everything a gentleman is supposed to do"
(Mm hmm)
"I called her when i felt like it"
(Mm hmm)
"I called her when i felt like it"
(Mm hmm)
"I felt like it a lot"
(Mmmm!)
"I felt like it a lot"
(Mmmm!)
"But i thought, what's she gonna hurt me for?
What's she gonna hurt me for, huh?"

You want a piece of me?
You want a piece of me!?
You're so nice, so take a slice

So she cut my throat, yeah
