You say I've got trouble I've got trouble all over me I've got trouble since the day I was born And it's not just a struggle It's the blood running through my veins It's all the clothes I've ever worn
And when I'm with you I feel so overdressed
The trouble is I'm not above or beyond anything So I know you must be good for me As far as you can and as bad as I am I know you must be good for me
I'm a terrible lover I never love you the way I should And every single reason's wrong Oh my sister, my brothers We've got history on our heels And we're running like we broke the law
With friends like these tell me, who needs the police
Chorus
We're making noise in the temple But we're skimming off the top And we don't want you to suffer But you don't want to stop Because you know that it's the only way
Chorus
