Juliana Hatfield - The Easy Way Out
You want your mother
She is your heroin
Your daddy didn’t love you
You’re breaking things again
You don’t want to love
You want to fight
You don’t want to do it
You’re too uptight
Well I know it’s got nothing to do with me
I won’t be your drama queen
Bad goodbye
You took the easy way out
You want it so bad to be bad
It’s an easy way out
Your badge of honour
An image of disease
You bought it on the corner
Instant authenticity
I count the days
How long will it take?
You’re selling tickets to the self-destruction
You want the world to see your pain
I didn’t come this far to go back again
Bad goodbye
You take the easy way out
You wanted so bad to be bad
It’s an easy way out
Your daily bath
Can’t keep your conscience clean
You’re unequal to the task
And you’ve got the nerve to be weak
Bad goodbye
You took the easy way out, out, out
You blame it on me
But you’re the disease
It’s an easy way out
And he cries
Like a girl
And he lies
To the world
And the hate
And the guilt
And the pills
It’s an easy way out
