Then Again

He'd drive a mint green van
and watch the Mexicans scatter
Be the first to admit he thought
it was funny as hell
Now he's taken to flippin' off
hippies at the river
Yeah, I never really like him
but I would never tell
Then again, I never did understand me
But then again, I never did understand me
I have bitten my tongue 'til
I can taste the blood
And I scream "uncle" when you twist my arm
I could say I was just too young
But I haven't yet learned
to trust my bleeding heart
But then again, I never did understand me
But then again, I never did understand me
And just to keep the peace and quiet
I'd forfeit my peace of mind
Then again, I never did understand me
Come for me and I'll be you canary
And stay 'til the end when it's
bad for my health
Yeah, I can forgive ever Tom,
Dick, or Harry
But when it comes down to me
I can't forgive myself
But then again, I never did understand me
But then again, I never did understand me
Just to keep the peace and quiet
I'd forfeit my peace of mind
Then again, I never did understand me
I life myself up for you to wear me down
And I do it every day as crazy as it seems
It's such a little thing like when I catch my reflection
I think, "Girl, don't you know you shouldn't wear
those jeans?"
But then again, I never did understand me
But then again, I never did understand me
And just to keep the peace and quiet
I'd forfeit my peace of mind
Then again, I never did understand
But then again, I never did understand
But then again, I never did understand me
But then again, I never did understand me
