Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me, our scarecrow realizes. Perhaps Danielle never really cared for him in the first place; she'll be easily forgotten.
lyrics
You know so well
I loved you, Danielle
Any fool can tell
I loved you, Danielle
But the nights I lay
In my bed awake
As I told my tears
They’d soon go away
I didn’t love them the way I wanted to
And I’m glad you’re gone ‘cuz the nightmares are too
So good-bye, Danielle (good riddance, babe)
I’m wishing you well (good riddance, babe)
I’ll see you in time (good riddance, babe)
But right now, good-bye
Cuz I see you’re fine
With some other guy
And it’s good to know
That you’re still alive
But you’re killing yourself just to please the dude
Like I killed myself just to be with you
You said it was a slap to the face
Well you and me, both, baby
You know so well
I loved you, Danielle
Any fool can tell
I loved you, Danielle
Has it really been eleven months
Since you bumped me off and you said we’re done?
Man, it feels like eleven years
Since I held your hand and I called you dear
I guess I truly am a fortunate pup
‘Cuz you’re out of my life, that’s a spot of good luck
Think of all the good times we had
Like I opened my mouth, you were instantly mad
On a scale to ten, you said I was the one
I prefer my games when they’re actually fun
Babe, I wonder how we started to be
Because it feels so right now my heart is free
Take back the promises, take back the gifts
You can pawn ‘em and go see a psychiatrist
‘Cuz you need one, babe. Are we good? All right, good.
Good-bye, Danielle
I’m wishing you well
I’ll see you in time
But right now, good-bye
You said it was a slap to the face
Well you and me, both, baby
I could while away the hours conferring with the flowers, consulting with the rain - but who has time for that? I regulate
my mood with musical catharsis and publish my diary on the internet for the whole world to hear, wearing my heart and my influences on my sleeve like a man who really needs to do laundry....more
