as good a reason Lyrics

[00:09.87] I met a woman with lips so red
[00:14.43] A face so lined like spider webs
[00:18.86] I'll always remember the things she said
[00:22.76] They were so wise, she opened my eyes, and they'll never close again
[00:28.31] Oh, how she sighed when she stubbed her cigarette
[00:32.89] I felt compelled to enquire of her success
[00:37.23] How do you do, how can you be so in love with yourself?
[00:42.12] Tell me, please, 'cause I need help
[00:45.17] She said, "Every time you are succeeding
[00:48.32] There's an old man somewhere, seething
[00:50.63] And spite's as good a reason to take his power"
[00:55.44] When you hate the body you are in
[00:58.03] Oh love, you're acting just for him
[01:00.49] As he counts his gold and green in his ivory tower
[01:04.90] Our fear it lines his pockets love
[01:07.09] So take that rage and bottle up
[01:09.37] And put a drop into his cup of wine
[01:14.16] You don't need him, you don't need me
[01:16.23] With that poisoned bottle, you'll be free
[01:18.35] But be damn sure you don't mix it up with mine
[01:22.44]
[01:32.74] I met a young girl with eyes so bright
[01:37.52] She was already getting sick of life
[01:42.07] Her arms were laden with his merchandise
[01:45.68] She asked me why I no longer try and waste my time
[01:49.60] And I said, "Spite"
[01:50.44] 'Cause every time you are succeeding
[01:53.00] There's an old man somewhere seething
[01:55.47] And spite's as good a reason to take his power
[01:59.96] When you hate the body you are in
[02:02.27] Oh love, you're acting just for him
[02:04.67] As he counts his gold and green in his ivory tower
[02:09.33] Our fear it lines his pockets love
[02:11.50] So take that rage and bottle up
[02:13.83] And put a drop into his cup of wine
[02:18.80] You don't need him, you don't need me
[02:20.72] With that poisoned bottle, you'll be free
[02:23.14] But be damn sure you don't mix it up with mine
[02:27.64] Be damn sure you don't mix it up with mine
[02:35.14] I met a woman with lips so red
[02:39.92] Always remember the things she said
[02:45.26]
