Teenage Joans Terrible
[Verse 1]
Hold me, like you're gonna drop me
Knowing you'll never do it softly
Slipping through your fingers with the grease
Then you told me I taste like a lolly, so sweet
But only when you want me
Changing like a channel on TV
I saw the newspaper on their front lawn
Those early birds, and thought
"They haven't brought it inside yet,"
And I'm remembering the things I can't forget
[Chorus]
I've been figuring out
How to figure things out
But you know that your eyes' shut tightly
So you don't have to see what I see
You've been living with doubt
Leaves a bad taste in your mouth
Now I'vе been holding on too long
If you're gonna drop me, do it softly
[Verse 2]
It's such a terriblе time to
Be the one, the bubblegum, the glue that's stuck to you
Why can't I scrub me off of you?
[Chorus}
I've been figuring out
How to figure things out
But you know that your eyes' shut tightly
So you don't have to see what I see
You've been living with doubt
Leaves a bad taste in your mouth
Now I've been holding on too long
If you're gonna drop me, do it softly
[Bridge]
It's terrible, but it'll do
I'm terrible but I'm not you
It's terrible, but it'll do (If you're gonna drop me, do it softly)
I'm terrible but I'm not you (If you're gonna drop me, do it softly)
It's terrible, but it'll do (If you're gonna drop me, do it softly)
I'm terrible but I'm not you
It's terrible, but it'll do (If you're gonna drop me, do it softly)
I'm terrible but I'm not you
It's terrible, but it'll do (If you're gonna drop me, do it softly)
I'm terrible but I'm not you
It's terrible, but it'll do (If you're gonna drop me, do it softly)
I'm terrible but I'm not you
It's terrible, but it'll do
I'm terrible but I'm not you
I'm terrible, but it'll do
I'm terrible but so are you
