Circus Zombie - No Happily Ever After Lyrics

The rain is falling and I'm really cold. I'll never forget the things I've been told
You walked out the door, heard you say you ain't coming back
I swore I'd love you until we grew old. The cow's been milked and the beans are sold
You think I'm stupid, I'm as dumb as Jack

You took my car and the golden goose. You left me a gun and a hangman's noose
You waved goodbye with a one-finger salute. Pushed me out of the plane with no parachute
Oh baby, long ago and far away is where it begins
But when the story is told, there'll be no happily ever after end

I drank warm milk and listened to air supply, feeling so sorry for myself
Wishing to die, I thought living without you would be really tough
I've never been alone, at least not nearly enough
I'll face the dragon, return the rain to the flames

I'll be the knight in shining armor so you'll remember my name
You took my dog and then spinning the wheel, crushed my heart like it was no big deal
You left my stuff in the corner as you left with a foreigner
You killed me with a stare as he ate through your golden hair

You huffed and you puffed, blew my world in
But when the story is told, there'll be no happily ever after end
I'll take the steel, I'll take the lemon
Crushed my heart like it was no big deal

You left my stuff in the corner as you left with a foreigner
You killed me with a stare as he ate through your golden hair
You huffed and you puffed, blew my world in
But when the story is told, there'll be no happily ever after end

I'll take the steel, I'll take the lemon
I can't fight through the stormy weather
My neck tightens, my wrists bleed
As he waters your plants and pollinates your seed

It's like having a house made of bricks but the mortar won't stick
It's like biting the center when all you want to do is lick
You took my pride with an entire pot of gold
Left me with scars for when I grow old

You skipped on down that yellow brick road
Never looking back, I guess it's the way it goes
With a blink of an eye and a sinister grin
You close the book, the credits crawl

The end
