Stomping the Roses Lyrics
Wasting time just going mindless
Watching your charades
When you were younger did it occur to you
Ten years from then you'd act the same age
I cannot carry on this way
Although I've carried all your every little thing
Carry me away
Did you feel like stomping the roses
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
I was flipping channels on my television
And it made me feel unwell
One of those complicated soap operas
I almost felt like I was watching myself
I cannot carry on this way
Although I've carried all your every little thing
Carry me away
Did you feel like stomping the roses
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
Everyone knows it
I know, I know, I know
I know it's over and I
I know, I know, I know
Always been your token nice guy
I know that you rule your whole world
I thought I could live in it
But I just can't
You know you're stomping the roses
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way your stomping the posies
Everyone knows it
Stomping the roses
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
Watching your charades
When you were younger did it occur to you
Ten years from then you'd act the same age
Although I've carried all your every little thing
Carry me away
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
And it made me feel unwell
One of those complicated soap operas
I almost felt like I was watching myself
Although I've carried all your every little thing
Carry me away
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
Everyone knows it
I know it's over and I
I know, I know, I know
Always been your token nice guy
I know that you rule your whole world
I thought I could live in it
But I just can't
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way your stomping the posies
Everyone knows it
Smashing out all the feeling inside of them
It's bad business
The way you're stomping the roses
