Lyrics
AT THE END OF THE DAY
Verse
It wasn?t my idea to move here in the first place
And you manipulated me, convinced me, lied to my face
Now you?re accusing me of taking all your closets
Something I?d never do unless you told me to
I don?t know-what?s really going on, somehow
You don?t know- your treatment of me?s so wrong
You can rant and rave, you can misbehave, try to make me cave
But I?m not taking advantage of you
Chorus
All you can say is AT THE END OF THE DAY
That everything is yours and I?m just in your way
You don?t seem to get that I have options that exclude you
Won?t be the devastated one if I should lose you
Your favorite words are AT THE END OF THE DAY
You can paint the walls pink, I?d have nothing to say
You don?t seem to get your attitude comes off as cruelty
So AT THE END OF THE DAY I?ll be goin? my way
My way-is the- highway
My way-is the-highway
Verse
You say I use your pots and pans and all your dishes
And I tell you half that stuff is mine, but you don?t listen
And that you?ve been wiping your wet ass on all my towels
You draw me into this so we?re both ridiculous
You?re the one-who?s clutching me at night
I?m not the one- who?s holding on for dear life
Though I must admit, like the way we fit, I?ll get over it
If we can?t seem to get along
Chorus
BRIDGE
You get so combative when I try to talk
And you say I?m too aggressive try to shut me off
I?m not trying to get over I?m just trying to land
Back on my feet the way I was when I had no man
I don?t know-what?s really going on
You don?t know- your treatment of me?s so wrong
You can rant and rave, you can misbehave, try to make me cave
But I?m not willing to give in to you (when)
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
