Stupid Thing Lyrics - Whatever - Aimee Mann

Nothing was saving our day 

There was nothing to say, 

But you said something anyway 

Claiming I stepped out of line 

Which forced you to leave me 

As if that idea was mine. 

Oh, you stupid thing 

Speaking of course as your dear departed 

Oh, you stupid thing 

It wasn't me that you 

Outsmarted 

Oh, you stupid thing 

Stopping it all 

Before it even started. 

I bet you knew it would come 

That's just like you, to sit back 

And just play it dumb 

One word of warning would help 

But that sacrifice was made 

Trying to save yourself 

Oh, you stupid thing 

Speaking of course as your dear departed 

Oh, you stupid thing 

It wasn't me that you 

Outsmarted 

Oh, you stupid thing 

Stopping it all 

Before it even started. 

Maybe that's just how I am 

To fall where I stand, or 

I'm weak for that kind of man 

One who looks helpless and brave 

But you turned into a coward 

I don't care for the parts you saved. 

You stupid thing 

Speaking of course as your dear departed 

Oh, you stupid thing 

It wasn't me that you outsmarted 

Oh, you stupid thing.
