Marshall Crenshaw - Better Back Off lyrics
(m. crenshaw, t. teeley)
 Now you can't always get what you want
 No, you can't always get what you need
 Sometimes you lose what you thought you had
 Now that's a real bad deal indeed
 But when you're angry at life itself
 Having a bad, bad day
 Don't judge yourself so brutally
 I can't stand it when you talk that way
 Oh baby, baby
 Better back off of that stuff
 You'd better take it slow
 I know you know
 That you're talking about someone I love
 Did you say what I think I heard? 
 Did you mean what I think you said? Marshall Crenshaw - Better Back Off - http://motolyrics.com/marshall-crenshaw/better-back-off-lyrics.html
 Why don't you redirect your rage
Onto someone else instead
 Now, we all have to walk that line
 Between sorrow and happiness
 Come over here and take my hand
 Won't you please give us both a rest? 
 Oh baby, baby
 Better back off that stuff
 You'd better take it slow
 I know you know
 That you're talking about someone I love
 Oh baby, baby
 I've heard enough
 'cause I know you will come through
 And you know it too
 You're talking about someone I love
