You told me on the fire escape
Just before you bummed a cigarette
Well, you’ve always been a high live-wire
Never straight, but so inspired
It kills me when I see you so upset
You’re telling everyone
That I’m the stubborn one
But guess who broke the spell
Hell is other people
To hell with other people
Not a word from you in days
I guess it’s just your faucet ways
Running hot and cold and back again
But it’s hard to keep an open mind
When you keep changing all the time
Suddenly 'receiving', not 'to send'
It’s always live and learn
But I’m the one who’s turned
But guess who broke the spell
Hell is other people
To hell with other people
You’re a 5 on Saffir-Simpson’s scale
Sharper than a broken nail
I’m glad I’m still alive to tell the tale
Hell is other people
To hell with other people
Hell is other people
To hell with other people
Hell is other people
To hell with other people
Hell is other people
To hell with other people
Hell is other people
You say your life's a total waste You told me on the fire escape Just before you bummed a cigarette Well, you’ve always been a high live-wire Never straight, but so inspired It kills me when I see you so upset You’re telling everyone That I’m the stubborn one But guess who broke the spell Hell is other people To hell with other people Not a word from you in days I guess it’s just your faucet ways Running hot and cold and back again But it’s hard to keep an open mind When you keep changing all the time Suddenly 'receiving', not 'to send' It’s always live and learn But I’m the one who’s turned But guess who broke the spell Hell is other people To hell with other people You’re a 5 on Saffir-Simpson’s scale Sharper than a broken nail I’m glad I’m still alive to tell the tale Hell is other people To hell with other people Hell is other people To hell with other people Hell is other people To hell with other people Hell is other people To hell with other people Hell is other people Explain Request ×
