Jewel - Love Me Just Leave Me Alone lyrics

I saw you standing there

You had gold dust in your pocket

And you combed barbed wire through your hair

You thought I didn`t notice

The skin on your teeth had a tear

To make me notice you started to shout

Then you and all your minions

Started flapping your tiny arms all about

They said you were a wise man

When did they teach wise men to pout?

I tried to forget you

But you tied bells to your name

They jingled every time I thought of you

Without shame

I tried to be unlovable

Why couldn`t you do the same?

CHORUS

What`s the matter?

Does your love need a home?

Alright then

Love me, just leave me alone

Your mother was a wolf bite

Your daddy was a cigarette

Your brother was a rosebud

Crossbred with a car wreck

Your sister was a stockbroker

But you ain`t nothing but a turtleneck

CHORUS

It`s not your little boy smile

It`s not your little boy name

It`s those big boy hands that are the ones to blame

I tried to be unlovable

Why couldn`t you do the same?

CHORUS
