Around the Bend Lyrics
I've been going 'round the bend
I've been taking lots of pills and things
I'll been seeing him again
There are things I've seen and done
That I would not wish on anyone
I go to bed at dawn
When you'd wish it would rain
Wash away the pain
I used to do a lot of blow
But now I only do the show
I like to get paid
I never get laid
People are too afraid
Watch out for my white lies
Watch out for my creativity
I've been around the world and back again
I still can't get those cards to win
Let it ring
Let it sting
Think of the little children
Love is not what you thought it was
Bring back the night we met
Remember what my eyes looked like then
And why you thought that I was the one
I can never see you again
'Cause I have done everything I can
To do the right thing
Now let the pendulum swing
To the wrong side of things
Watch out for the night sky
Playing tricks on your mind
Watch out for my white lies
Been around the world and back again
I still can't get those cards to win
I've been going 'round the bend
I've been taking lots of pills and things
I'll been seeing him again
That I would not wish on anyone
I go to bed at dawn
When you'd wish it would rain
Wash away the pain
But now I only do the show
I like to get paid
I never get laid
People are too afraid
Watch out for my creativity
I've been around the world and back again
I still can't get those cards to win
Let it sting
Think of the little children
Love is not what you thought it was
Bring back the night we met
Remember what my eyes looked like then
And why you thought that I was the one
'Cause I have done everything I can
To do the right thing
Now let the pendulum swing
To the wrong side of things
Playing tricks on your mind
Watch out for my white lies
Been around the world and back again
I still can't get those cards to win

This song speaks for itself. She's assuming a role from a woman most of us would not want to consider. I think it's a hearfelt song for a certain type of disenfranchised.
