“Unfinished Business”
Boy I know your secrets though you
Brag and swagger
and you lay women down
You’re the same tough guy
that cried in my arms
And kissed me when the lights went down
I hear you married some
Danish girl
I’m so glad that it wasn’t me
‘Cause you’re like so many of those
boys I’ve known
You break your promise easily
Unfinished business
fox in the headlights
Tears for what might have been
Unfinished business
crawling out of the woodwork
You know how to ruin
a good dream
See your life reflected in my
painted eyes
These memories are hard to shake
I pressed my lips against your
trembling flesh
And waited for your back to break
You liar, you coward, you
sleeping fool
Hey don’t you know that secrets kill
Heaven and hell are right
here on Earth
Decided by your own free will
Unfinished business
fox in the headlights
Tears for what might have been
Unfinished business
crawling out of the woodwork
I know how to ruin a good dream
Now go tell your friends that I’m
mad in my head
That I don’t know what I mean
You walk like Jack and you
love like Mary
And you’re more than a bit of a queen
Unfinished business
You know exactly what I mean
You lie, you lie, you lie
You lie, you lie, you lie
Unfinished business, yeah tough guy
You know exactly what I mean
Brag and swagger
and you lay women down
You’re the same tough guy
that cried in my arms
And kissed me when the lights went down
I hear you married some
Danish girl
I’m so glad that it wasn’t me
‘Cause you’re like so many of those
boys I’ve known
You break your promise easily
Unfinished business
fox in the headlights
Tears for what might have been
Unfinished business
crawling out of the woodwork
You know how to ruin
a good dream
See your life reflected in my
painted eyes
These memories are hard to shake
I pressed my lips against your
trembling flesh
And waited for your back to break
You liar, you coward, you
sleeping fool
Hey don’t you know that secrets kill
Heaven and hell are right
here on Earth
Decided by your own free will
Unfinished business
fox in the headlights
Tears for what might have been
Unfinished business
crawling out of the woodwork
I know how to ruin a good dream
Now go tell your friends that I’m
mad in my head
That I don’t know what I mean
You walk like Jack and you
love like Mary
And you’re more than a bit of a queen
Unfinished business
You know exactly what I mean
You lie, you lie, you lie
You lie, you lie, you lie
Unfinished business, yeah tough guy
You know exactly what I mean
