the dismemberment plan – respect is due lyrics
[verse 1]
well i only call you darling
cause i know how much it bugs you
and darling, some habits are so hard to break
and if you think that condescension is s-xy
well, that’s your mistake to make
[verse 2]
so i learned about my power
and learned how not to say it
and i learned that i have things some people need
and no, i know it’s not healthy
but it sure beats giving you the lead
[chorus]
if i ever would let down the walls
that protect me from you
i would say respect is due
but not in this lifetime
[verse 3]
so maybe i’d have loved you
so maybe if you loved me
and maybe the easter bunny exists
it’s all the same to me now, dear
yeah, but don’t think i don’t have those old lists
[verse 4]
now the guns are tired
shoot bullets in slow motion
and all the soldiers have all gone home
and that’s too bad ’cause it was such a nice war, dear
yeah, but it’s time to leave well enough alone
[chorus]
if i ever would let down the walls
that protect me from you
i would say respect is due
but not in this lifetime
[verse 5]
well i only call you darling
because i really mean it
don’t take my word for it; i wouldn’t take yours
and yet i know it’s not healthy
yeah, but it sure beats picking at age-old sores
[verse 6]
so bon voyage, my darling
it was real good knowing you
that’s french for “have a good trip,” if you didn’t know
cause condescension is s-xy
and i don’t know why, why you wouldn’t think so
[chorus]
if i ever would let down the walls
that protect me from you
i would say respect is due
but not in this lifetime
