If or when I call out your name, I know you hate me for it Stronger than a spider web in fall, it's all you're livin' for these days Think of all the times you were a mess, I guess you hate me for it That's when I'm my best, I will confess, but now resentments boarding up It's all the same my cherry plum, I pony up We run away from everyone we love You can't persuade me, buttercup, that I'll do right by you I know the little girl was scared to rest, I wish the threat was over You're my favorite crumbling cassette, we all will wear down and decay It's all the same my cherry plum, I pony up We run away from everyone we love You can't persuade me, buttercup, that I'll do right by you
