One Too Many Times Lyrics - Midnight Oil

She was the golden summer wine 

And now she's black and blue resigned 

He took advantage like the spider 

Helpless, one too many times 

You had to go ahead and sing 

You had to steal that diamond ring 

Upon the headstone so inscribed 

They cried, one too many times 

We are so human, we're so small 

We're always coming back for more 

A second helping third and fourth 

It's gone, one too many times 

One too many times
