Lyrics

I'm sick of being your emotional tampon -

Mess me up and dispose of me

Some kind of human receptacle

You only want me

When you're bleeding.



When I want

Human kindness

Need your open arms -

Baby, you're gone, gone, gone -

Gone, gone, gone -

Gone, gone, gone -

Gone, gone, gone -

Yeah- yea -yea~!



Well, I -

Won't be you your monthly necessity -

Good for maybe

Four or five days -

Don't recognize what is left of me -

Don't believe a

Word you're sayin' -



When I want some

Human kindness

Need your open arms -

Baby, you're gone, gone, gone -

Gone, gone, gone -

Gone, gone, gone -

Gone, gone, gone -

Yeah- yea -yea~!



Bridge: Oh, baby you're gone -

Gone, gone, gone.

Oh, baby you're gone -

Gone, gone, gone.



(Repeat first verse and chorus and end.)

I love the Highway Star-esque start!!! And the bass tone is cool!
Provocative lyrics without being crass. The bass part during the refrain are very good, too.
