Anthony Jay Sanders - My Dice lyrics
[Chorus] I know you think I've been so nice I've helped you out and sacrificed But I'm scared to say, I load my dice But I'm bad, bad news I'm a bad, bad dude And I'm bad for you [Verse 1] When I'm half-good, let me reaffirm I said half-good, I tend to stretch the term And the stretch marks always show And when I'm half-good, I have a smile on my lips Like maybe that could help me beguile and grip And I keep myself up on my toes And the stretch marks always show When you're swimming through your tears across the party Feeling stupid and unwanted Feeling drunk and disenchanted I'll be by the door And I'll smile just like a good friend But that's not from my good end I don't smile to make you happy, peaceful, or serene I smile because I'm mean [Chorus] I know you think I've been so nice I've helped you out and sacrificed But I'm scared to say, I load my dice And I'm bad, bad news I'm a bad, bad dude And I'm bad for you [Verse 2] I'd be a bad dad, I honestly think I'd be a bad dad I'd be a permanent link in a long chain of abuse I'd be that dad, the one a kid can't stand the sight of I'd be that dad, he wouldn't k** me, but he might have If I hadn't later set him loose It's a long chain of abuse I can see my older self frail on a d**hbed With arms and legs like whispers With only whitewashed whiskers Staring at the door And I'll wonder if I'm forgiven, if just one angel listened If any of my children would come and visit me St. Peter drops his keys [Chorus] I know you think I've been so nice I've helped you out and sacrificed But I'm sad to say, I load my dice And I'm bad, bad news I'm a bad, bad dude And I'm bad for you And I'm bad for you And I'm bad for you
