Lyrics
I'm Tired, Get Out!
copyright March 1997
By Cory Cavill Tompkins
Verse 1
The day was slow and lazy
the kind that drive's you crazy.
Sittin' in the shade, avoiding the sun's hot rays.
Then to my dismay, I see what the cat drags in.
I don't wanna hear what you have to say today,
so pack your bags and go the other way.
Chorus
Don't give me that eye, I'm ready to fight.
You've been gone ninety nights
and I'm tired.
I'm tired
of payin' your bills and cleanin' this house,
and listenin' to the neighbors call you a
dirty old louse.
I'm tired. Get out!
Verse 2
The wind was wild and freezin'.
It made me feel uneasy,
shovelin' the walk,
cuttin wood on an old choppin' block.
I secured the lock
then I watched you drive in.
What did you think I'd be fallin' apart alone?
I'm the best I've been since you've been gone.
Chorus
Tag
And let me make my self perfectly clear
you'll never ever ever be welcome here.
I'm tired! Get out!
