Lyrics
TEMPER TEMPER
(Mark Chadbourne)
No pleasures
No complaints
No context
No self-restraints
No visitation
No loneliness
No getting acquainted
No one to miss
Temper temper
That's something that you can ill afford to lose
uh, uh
Temper temper
That's something that you can ill afford to choose
uh, huh
No congress
No precedent
No thinking allowed
No malcontents
No discussion
No alabis
No deceptions
No bedroom eyes
Temper temper
That's something that you can ill afford to lose
uh, uh
Temper temper
That's something that you can ill afford to choose
uh, huh
You've become a hater to distance from your pain
Built up walls around you to bear another strain
Emotional black-mailer
Master manipulator
You can't learn to love yourself
So you turned into a hater in vain
No complications
No further need
No loss of patience
No need to procede
I will cut you with my tongue
And shred you to pieces
And mess with your mind
'til all the feeling ceases
Just watch me
Temper temper
That's something that you can ill afford to lose
uh, uh
uh, uh
uh, uh
