Bill Osofsky songs
Demo by Oak Lane Productions. Matt Howard on vocals
THE BIGGEST JERK ALIVE
(verse)
A little past three-thirty
I drive up in my truck
Walked in the house real quiet
Tried not to wake you up
Another heart-break evening
You cried yourself to sleep
Wonderin' just what's the use
He'll only have some lame excuse
He's never made a promise he could keep
Boy, you know you'd better get a grip
You're about to let the best thing slip away
(chorus)
I'd say that I've been actin' like a fool
But that would be too kind
A little too short-sighted
Maybe more like blind
Forgive me girl, 'cause we both know that I've
Been actin' like the biggest jerk alive
(verse)
The times I thought you cheated
When I was on the road
Said you weren't worth a nickle
When your heart was made of gold
You always knew my anger
Went away quick as it came
And right now as I'm standin' here
And see your pillow wet with tears
I've never in my life felt so ashamed
Boy don't let it all come crashin' down
You can't get by without her arms around you
(repeat chorus)
