Don't try selling me your heartbreak
'Cause I can't take another sales pitch
You don't wanna be the last one
Who's no fun
The one that's always left behind
I know it's hard
To see clearly all of the time
So go do what you want
And I'll try hard to be more understanding

But I don't want to live like that
Under your thumb behind your back
I just wanna be there to see the last laugh

I'll try killing you with kindness
Forget the mindless things I might've said
And I won't try to catch you or stop you
From doing what you think is right
I'll look the other way
Maybe I was wrong this one time
It's got to be hard
When the rest of the world's gone crazy around you

But I don't want to live like that
Under your thumb, behind your back
I just wanna be there to see the last laugh

Back and forth you swing
From routine to obscene
And I know that you're just like me
And that's exactly what I like about you
I guess I'm probably insane
Two by four is what I'd use to smack you upside your head
'Cause you drive me crazy

So don't keep singing me your sad song
It's been so long
Since I've gotten through
And I'm not gonna be the last one
Who's no fun
The one that's always left behind
Don't get me wrong
When I don't tell you what you wanna hear
And go do what you wnat
And I'll try hard to be more understanding

But I don't want to live like that
Under your thumb, behind your back
I just wanna be there to see the last laugh
