Jon Kott Band - Self Defense Lyrics

This whole world's full of mind erasers
Great big lies and radio chasers
Well I do what I gotta do
What I gotta do to stay away from people like you
Well I don't wanna fuss I don't wanna crawl
And I don't wanna make amends
I don't wanna follow you till the end
You talk about me to all of your friends
When they come around asking me why I did what I did, well it was self defense
You ask me what the look on my face meant
I'm staring across at my replacement
I've seen all I gotta see I don't know the lines but I know just what's in between
Well I don't wanna fuss I don't wanna crawl
And I don't wanna make amends
I don't wanna follow you till the end
You talk about me to all of your friends
When they come around asking what I did
I'm claiming self defense
In my eyes was a storm I should have shot that mother f*cker down
When I had my chance I lost my nerve and my apologies went out
You took from me everything I had
Well I can't forget about that
Yeah you took from me everything I had
Well I can't forget about that
Well I don't wanna fuss I don't wanna crawl
And I don't wanna make a mends
I don't wanna follow you till the end
You talk about me to all of your friends
When they come around asking me why I did what I did, well it was self defense
This whole world's full of mind erasers
Great big lies and radio chasers
Well I do what I gotta do
What I gotta do to stay away from people like you
