S.O.B. Lyrics

(Lisa Marie Presley/Glen Ballard/Clif Magness)

You say I seem so grim. Darling do you forgive me
I went out on a limb 'cause I needed to be
Near the fireflies flying high above me
Then I hit the sky and it fell down on me

You said it wasn't sharp but I cut my finger
You said it just wouldn't burn and I scarred my face

You know I bite my nails, my skin and my fingers
And I've heard that's my liver, my nerves and my brain
I said I just like to bite on my fucking fingers
Do you have another intelligent answer for me today

You said it wasn't sharp but I cut my finger
You said it just wouldn't burn and I scarred my face
You said it just wasn't there when it fell down on me
Well I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say

I lost my trust in you
You were dangerous and scary
And you poisoned me with the fruits everyone was intrigued by
And I finally got buried

You said I won't forget and I don't remember and
You said I'm something I'm not and I fell on my face
You said I wouldn't rot but worms are crawling on me
I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say
I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say
