You'd start the fire I'd fan the flames We danced on a wire Poison running in our veins Who's to bleed and who's to blame Blood and thunder Quick on the draw Putting me under Broken dishes on the floor Burning what we had adored Well you can call the dogs off, baby I don't hate you anymore Always frowning, yeah! Cursing and howling Running battle Drawing guns and crossing swords Fighting cruel and hopeless wars Well you can call the dogs off, baby I don't hate you anymore Yeah, we can bring the curtain down now, darling I don't hate you anymore And it ain't no good No good fussing about it No good fussing about it Ain't just no good No good fussing about it No good fussing about it You'd get suspicious I'd try to explain Bitter and vicious I would strike at you with rage Like a panther in a cage You'd persecute me I'd seek revenge Always at each other Counting faults and keeping scores What was all that fighting for? Well you can call the dogs off, baby I don't hate you anymore
