I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors
|
I screamed his name a¢æ?til the neighbors called the cops
|
I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
|
Don't know what I did next all I know, I couldn't stop
|
|
Word got around to the barflies and the baptists
|
My mama's phone started ringin' off the hook
|
I can hear her now sayin' she ain't gonna have it
|
Don't matter how you feel, it only matters how you look
|
|
Go and fix your make up, girl it's just a break up
|
Run and hide your crazy and start actin' like a lady
|
'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
|
Even when you fall apart
|
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
|
|
I wish I could be just a little less dramatic
|
Like a Kennedy when Camelot went down in flames
|
Leave it to me to be holdin' the matches
|
When the fire trucks show up and there's nobody else to blame
|
|
Can't get revenge and keep a spotless reputation
|
Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make
|
My mama came from a softer generation
|
Where you get a grip and bite your lip just to save a little face
|
|
Go and fix your make up, girl it's just a break up
|
Run and hide your crazy and start actin' like a lady
|
'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
|
Even when you fall apart
|
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
|
|
Powder your nose, paint your toes
|
Line your lips and keep 'em closed
|
Cross your legs, dot your I's
|
And never let 'em see you cry
|
|
Go and fix your make up, well it's just a break up
|
Run and hide your crazy and start actin' like a lady
|
'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
|
Even when you fall apart
|
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
|
