You take your medicine and dial current love,
She's got herself mixed up with a change of attitude,
You close your house up tight and switch the outside light,
You swear that, just last night, that light was burning bright.
Take the accent off your tongue,
Count your fingers just for fun,
One - you seek a lasting peace,
Two - don't want just quick relief,
Three - don't know what to believe.
Dismiss the pleasantries, I'll get down to what you mean,
Bring out this list of pain, none of which can I explain,
I tripped and fell with you, back up the road aways,
I took the helping hand, you refused the rescue plan.
Take the accent off your tongue,
Count your fingers just for fun,
One - you seek a lasting peace,
Two - don't want just quick relief,
Three - don't know what to believe.

You swear that, just last night, that light was burning, burning bright.
Count 'em off,
1, 2, 3,
Count 'em off,
Count 'em off with me.
One - you seek a lasting peace,
Two - don't want just quick relief,
Three - don't know what to believe.
That's okay,
