lyrics

I betrayed all my friends.
I cheated on my woman.
I lied to my grandmas.
I even kicked the dog.

I went fishing didn't eat the catch,
My dad calls I never call him back.
I put a lot of shit into my arms,
I broke into a car when I was drunk
at 8 AM.
And I've dreamt of murdering.
I got jerked off in the park.
My family's torn apart.

Oh, If there's one thing
That you should hear,
Before you come with me,
I'm the kinda guy I'll always make you unhappy.

Oh, Baby, I'm a piece of scum,
The shit you clean under your thumb.
Baby, I'm the kind of guy that I,
I make you wanna die, get out while you still can.

And I left my only son,
And I'll quit right when she's about to come.
And I lied to my gram paw
I even had to put down our dog.

Oh, If there's one thing
That you should hear,
Before you come with me,
I'm the kinda guy I'll always make you unhappy.

Oh, Baby, I'm a piece of scum,
The shit you clean under your thumb.
Baby, I'm the kind of guy that I,
I make you wanna die, get out while you still can.
