The Easy Way Out - Juliana Hatfield

You want your mother

She is your heroine

Your daddy didn’t love you

You’re breaking things again

You don’t want to love

You want to fight

You don’t want to do it

You’re too uptight

Well I know it’s got nothing to do with me

I won’t be your drama queen

Bad goodbye

You took the easy way out

You want it so bad to be bad

It’s an easy way out

Your badge of honour

An image of disease

You bought it on the corner

Instant authenticity

I count the days

How long will it take?

You’re selling tickets to the self-destruction

You want the world to see your pain

I didn’t come this far to go back again

Bad goodbye

You take the easy way out

You wanted so bad to be bad

It’s an easy way out

Your daily bath

Can’t keep your conscience clean

You’re unequal to the task

And you’ve got the nerve to be weak

Bad goodbye

You took the easy way out, out, out

You blame it on me

But you’re the disease

It’s an easy way out

And he cries

Like a girl

And he lies

To the world

And the hate

And the guilt

And the pills

It’s an easy way out
