bettie serveert - Hell=Other People

You say your life's a total waste

You told me on the fire escape

Just before you bummed a cigarette



Well, you've always been a high live-wire

Never straight, but so inspired

It kills me when I see you so upset



You're telling everyone

That I'm the stubborn one

But guess who broke the spell



Hell is other people

To hell with other people



Not a word from you in days

I guess it's just your faucet ways

Running hot and cold and back again



But it's hard to keep an open mind

When you keep changing all the time

Suddenly 'receiving', not 'to send

It's always live and learn

But I'm the one who's turned

But guess who broke the spell



Hell is other people

To hell with other people



You're a 5 on Saffir-Simpson's scale

Sharper than a broken nail

I'm glad I'm still alive to tell the tale



Hell is other people

To hell with other people

Hell is other people

To hell with other people



Hell is other people

To hell with other people

Hell is other people

To hell with other people



Hell is other people
