Used to Be

Baby I no longer want to be
Just a thorn in your side
Tell me what you gave me baby
And I will give you back
The troubles you gave to me
Gonna wrap em up in a box
Tie 'em up with string
Send 'em back to you
They no longer mean a thing to me

Better get used to bein' my used to be
Baby I no longer want to be
Just a cushion for your pride
Here's my badge back baby
This man's gotta ride away
Before you make me change my mind
I'll be gone before you notice that I'm not around
You'll look everywhere baby
But I just won't be found

Better get used to being my used to be
I used to be the hands of your clock baby
But I always knew in time
I'd no longer be the key to your lock baby
And you would change your mind

I used to be the hands of your clock baby
But I always knew in time
I'd no longer be the key to your lock baby
And you would suddenly change your mind

Baby I remember a time
When you really used to try
But nowadays baby
You can't even look me in the eye
Your love is drifting with the tide
Well I ain't gonna blame you
If you ain't gonna blame me
I'll just move on down
I'm sure that you'll agree

Get used to bein' my used to be
Well I ain't gonna blame you
If you ain't gonna blame me
I'll just move on down the line
I'm sure that you'll agree
Better get used to bein' my used to be
