Shakespear's Sister - My 16th Apology Lyrics
(Fahey/Detroit/Feldman) 4:16 [the things i said about you] [maybe we could work it out someday] things were going pretty well 'till i died on that summer afternoon when you broke down before my eyes well i got a streak of meanness a clumsy way of speaking and i don't know where i get it from it must run in my family do i have to go down on my knees? this is my 16th apology to you with friends like me who needs enemies i got a river inside the size of my rage which is really something else when you think of my tender age well i got a way about me but it's hard for me to see it and i don't know when i'm in the wrong why am i so hard to please? this is my 16th apology to you do i have to go down on my knees for you with friends like me who needs enemies the things i said about you were all said yesterday i didn't mean to hurt you maybe we could work it out someday well i got a streak of meanness a clumsy way of speaking and i don't know when i'm in the wrong why am i so hard to please? do i have to go down on my knees? this is my 16th apology to you with friends like me who needs enemies [didn't your mother ever tell you] [to err is human, to forgive is divine] [oh well, i'll see you in the next life]
