You In Spite Of Yourself Lyrics - John Wesley Harding

What have they done to you, darling? 

What did you let them do? 

'Cos I can't believe they'd get that far 

Without some assistance from you 

Did you offer scant resistance 

When the black light turned to blue? 

Was it everything you dreamed of? 

Did you think you'd still be you 

In spite of yourself? 

What have they done to you, darling? 

How'd they get away with that? 

When you saw their funny mouse suits 

Did you know that they were rats? 

And I think, I know, I'm sure 

You were aware of every ruse 

You've even changed your name 

Maybe that's why you're confused 

In spite of yourself 

Through a crack in your disguise 

Your eye is peeping through 

And it's like sunlight through the curtains 

What have they done to you, darling? 

Who are they anyway? 

Give us their addresses 

We'll hear what they have to say 

We revile the things we hate 

But give credit where it's due 

And you've had a big fake over 

It could be a big improvement 

But I guess that you're still you 

You in spite of yourself
