Ian Hunter - Soap and Water lyrics

(Ian Hunter)

I can't believe what you did, you know - you just can't let it go

I'm sick 'n' tired of listening to your innuendo

I can't believe what you did, you know - you sawed me in half

When I was at the end of my endurance

All you did was bite the hand that fed you from the start

Oh - oh - oh - oh - a little soap 'n' water, na na na na na na - would not come amiss

Oh - oh - a little soap 'n' water - a little soap 'n' water, a little soap 'n' water

I can't believe what you did, why - why you stoop so low

Why am I the target for your slings and arrows

I can't believe what you did, when - you showed me no class

Every mirror tells a different story

Who gave you the right to be the keeper of my past

Oh - oh - oh - oh - a little soap 'n' water, na na na na na na - would not come amiss

Oh - oh - a little soap 'n' water - a little soap 'n' water, we're gonna have to wash your mouth out if you persist

You know, I was never loyal to you - you were never loyal to me

We were both loyal to the cause

That cause died - there was nothing left inside

It ain't my fault, let it - it ain't your fault - let it ride

I can't believe what you did, you know - you know how to hurt

All you do is drag old memories through the dirt

I can't believe what you did - you show no mercy

Yesterday don't last until tomorrow

My oh my, what a pitiful cry - you're your own worst enemy

Oh - oh - oh - oh - a little soap 'n' water, na na na na na na - would not come amiss

Oh - oh - a little soap 'n' water - a little soap 'n' water, we're gonna have to wash your mouth out if you persist

I got just what you need, I got just what you need

I got just what you need, I got just what you need

I got just what you need, I got just what you need

I got just what you need
