Oh I never knew you were so weak

I never knew I was so strong

Till you let go about a year ago

And left me hanging on

When you cut the thing that held us together

You were pulling the wings off a fly

Now you're back from the dead pushing a double bed

And I wanna know why

Oh you say it was a misunderstanding

You never meant to let me down

You say you love me still

But your hand's in the till

So why should I believe in you now

Now I'm rich you popped up out of nowhere

Through a hole in the net

And all you say is, Hi, do you remember

When I wanna forget



(Chorus)

You came crawling out of the woodwork

Crawling out of the wood

You came crawling out of the woodwork

To suck my blood

Crawling out of the woodwork

For old time's sake

Crawling out of the woodwork

For a slice of cake

You came crawling



I didn't even know about the others

Till I caught you in a cheap hotel

Now I've always been lousy with faces

But the pain rings a bell

He was tall, he was rich and he was handsome

He was everything that I'd never been

Did you hang about till the money ran out

Before crawling on back to me



(Chorus)



I never knew you were so weak

I never knew I was so strong

Till you let go about a year ago

And left me hanging on

When you cut the thing that held us together

You were pulling the wings off a fly

Now you're back from the dead pushing a double bed

And I wanna know why



(Chorus
