Fiona Apple

I'm undecided about you again.
Mightn't be right that you're not here
It's double-sided, 'cause I ruined it all,
But also saved myself
By never believing you, dear
Everything good I deem too good to be true.
Everything else is just a bore
Everything I have to look forward to
Has a pretty painful and very imposing before
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
I have too been playing with fifty-two cards.
Just 'cause I play so far from my vest
Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard.
What could I do but spend my best
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees,
All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me
And in its wake appeared the touch and call of a different breed.
One of the steps is getting wise and got me there and then got me
And what a thing to know what could be instead.
Oh what a blessed curse to see
Took the agenda from its place in my bed;
Made a merry paramour of me
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Given the eyes to view it
As it goes by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Saying there's nothing to it,
Then lettin' it go by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Given the eyes to view it,
As it goes by the boards
Oh sailor why'd you do it,
What'd you do that for?
Given the eyes to view it,
As it goes by the boards
