Ooh, I can be a real motherfucker
I'm a mess, yeah, I'm a lot
Sometimes a monster just like my father
A nasty temper, yeah, I run hot
Oh, liar, liar, your skin's on fire
How can I love you if you don't understand?
I never meant to hurt you, well, maybe a little
I think you wanted me to be someone else, but
Who's the villain sneaking up from behind
With a knife in his hand and a mouth full of lies? Yeah
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, you sharpen your nails
Whoa, whoa, you weep and you wail
I'm the big bad wolf in your fairy tale
Ooh, you lover of gossip, you tiny tattler
All of your stories with their tiny holes
Half the truth is worse than no truth at all
I'm an ex, not a devil here to suck out your soul, no
And who's the villain sneaking up from behind
With a knife in his hand and a mouth full of lies? Oh
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, you sharpen your nails
Whoa, whoa, you weep and you wail
I'm the big bad wolf in your fairy tale
This one goes out to all my broken-hearted beasties
Did you ever try to love someone who did not love you back?
I know you know
You ever try to let someone back in after they come to you
With a softness in their eyes and a grief in their heart?
And then you find out about a certain book
A salacious bestseller full of misremembered cobwebs
If it is after you come out
I did not write the fucking Wolverine Blues
I never told you that
And that pleated skirt was a week-old rotten meat shade of chartreuse
Not Off-White
And I have scars on my chest
No mention of that
I am not Vampire Fabio
Stitch the initials on the backside of a picket target
This is an insane person
And I was Lilior, not Hurricane
And I would never say that to Claudia on the train
I would never ever say that, you cancerous jackal
Ooh
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, you sharpen your nails
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
I'm the big bad wolf in your fairy tale
Whoa, whoa, the night's for sale
Whoa, whoa, you sharpen your nails
Whoa, whoa, you said I could fail
I'm the big bad wolf in your fucking tattletale
Oh, I'm the big bad wolf
