Surprises – I Have Plenty To Say When You're Dead lyrics

You told me I'd amount to nothing
Like drunkards in your lake front town
That you would always support me
Like orphans at the lost and found
But now that I am finally found

I'm standing up for myself now, darling
I'm breaking off and it hurts like hell
I'll have plenty to say when you're dead,
'Cause I can't help myself

I dream of making doctor's appointments
Where I can steal the nurses' meds
So you can make a quick recovery
From all the shit that I've been fed
And I would never leave my bed

I'm standing up for myself now, darling
I'm breaking off and it hurts like hell
I'll have plenty to say when you're dead,
'Cause I can't help myself.
No, I can't help myself

It never should have gone this far,
But if it did, I let you down.

I'm standing up for myself now, darling
I'm breaking off because it hurts like hell
I'll have plenty to say when you're dead,
'Cause I can't help myself

I'm standing up for myself now, darling
I'm breaking off and it hurts like hell
I'll have plenty to say when you're dead,
'Cause I can't help myself

I'm standing up for myself now, darling
I'm breaking off and it hurts like hell
I'll have plenty to say when you're dead,
'Cause I can't help myself
No, I can't help myself
No, I can't help myself
