It's another back-door sneakin' in
where you been? midnight
quiet as a mack truck-lotsa luck
thinkin' up an alibi
but every light in the house is on
everything is gone
Chorus:
she left me no chance at redemption
no further exemption
just a big red "goodbye" in lipstick on the wall
goodbye says it all
no long explanation
no reconciliation
no let's-talk-it-over number i can call
goodbye says it all
goodbye...
She could have thrown a knock-down scream-and-shout
have-it-out tirade
she could have made it real tough bringing up
all the hell that i raised
but no more wasted words on me
no, she kept short and sweet
Repeat chorus
No more wasted words on me
no, she kept short and sweet
Repeat chorus
