lyrics

I've always been a sucker
for those little sparks that fly
when I try to look away
but you catch me with your eyes
you got that dirty little mouth
makes me wanna come clean
then you hit me with a punch
that i never could have seen

i'm beaten and it took less than two licks
i'm broken but i don't want to be fixed
i'll take my time and heal
and never make those same mistakes again

it's the war of the roses
it's a fight to the end
i always think i'm tough enough
but then i break before you bend

you've had your time to strut and fluff
now c'mon and show me your stuff
buttercup, i never thought
this is how we'd end up
you played me like tekken
and i never suspected
that you'd turn the game around
right when i least expected

i'm beaten and it took less than two licks
i'm broken but i don't want to be fixed
i'll take my time and heal
and never make those same mistakes again

one blow... one hit...
one blow... one hit...
one blow k.o.
i can never say no
one-hit wonder
demigod of thunder

you don't turn the other cheek
and you're always down to fight
once I get you goin
then you'll be that way all night
i try to play it off
but you know i like it rough
one way or another
we'll end up in fisticuffs

i'm beaten and it took less than two licks
i'm broken but i don't want to be fixed
i'll take my time and heal
and never make those same mistakes again

Devin Tait Sacramento, California

Having transplanted himself from Kansas to California around the turn of the millennium, Devin Tait quickly found himself derailed from his original plan to join a boyband. Meeting a couple of guitar playing lesbians at karaoke led Tait to form the band Shitting Glitter with Amy Crosby and Von Edwards. After nearly a decade with the band, Tait decided it was time to branch out on his own. ... more
