Amy Rigby: Keep It To Yourself

I was driving to work today and I heard this song on the radio. Cracked me up to no end.

Here's a link to the song itself, and here's the lyrics:

KEEP IT TO YOURSELF (BILL DEMAIN/AMY RIGBY)

YOU SAY YOU’D LIKE TO KILL THE MAN
WHO BROKE MY HEART
YOU DON’T THINK HE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO LIVE
YOU SAY YOU WANT TO SHOOT THE DUDE
WHO SCREWED ME UP
ME, I’M TRYING SO HARD TO FORGIVE

BUT HERE’S HIS ADDRESS, HERE’S HIS PICTURE
HERE’S THE MAKE AND MODEL OF HIS CAR
HE WORKS UNTIL 4:30
THEN HE HANGS OUT AT THE TOPLESS BAR
WITH A GIRL ON EACH ARM
IF HE SHOULD COME TO HARM
JUST KEEP IT TO YOURSELF

REMEMBER HOW HE CHEATED
AND HE LIED TO ME
YOU TOLD ME THAT IT MAKES YOU LOSE YOUR HEAD
I SEE THEY’RE POURING CONCRETE
ON ROUTE 33
I DON’T BELIEVE YOU’D DO THOSE THINGS YOU SAID

BUT HERE’S HIS ADDRESS, HERE’S HIS PICTURE
HERE’S HIS PAGER NUMBER AND HIS CELL
HE WORKS OUT AT THE HEALTH CLUB
AND HE REALLY LIKES TO WATCH HIMSELF
FLEXING IN THE MIRROR
IF HE SHOULD DISAPPEAR
JUST KEEP IT TO YOURSELF

I LIKE THE WAY THAT YOU TAKE CARE OF ME
I LIKE THE WAY YOU SAY THAT YOU’LL TAKE CARE OF THINGS
