Also, there are a few errors in the submitted lyric. According to the Eels website, the correct words are:


Guess I'm doing something wrong Never feel right in these shoes Pocket full of matches and a head full of flames Got to warn you that I'm bad news

She tucks me in and then she screams "One day you will have to choose Either take care of me or take care of you And don't pretend you're not bad news"

Come on now, I'll take you home You don't have a thing to lose But stick around long enough and you'll find out I am nothing but bad news

You can never change where you're from No matter who I will accuse I'm gonna get on with a better life And one day I won't be bad news

It's the same Every day when I wake up It's the same In the way that you Gave me up In the middle of a swan dive

And I was soaring down Perfect and slow
