Biting the Bullet (Is Bad for Business)

[Verse 1]

She said "there's nothing you can say to me that hasn't been said

There's nothing you can do to me that hasn't been done

Inside my head, done inside my head"

"Well what else do you have up there that isn't tied down?

You make a lot of noise for a girl from south of town

South of town"

[Chorus]

She's so calm, yet so confused

She don't know she's bein' used

She tries so hard, but it makes no difference

'Cause biting the bullet is bad for business

[Verse 2]

She pretends to be so interested in current affairs

Pretends she doesn't notice when she sees so many people stare

And the people stare

She counted 39 steps from her door to her car

39 thousand more just to get herself out of the dark

And now she sees a spark

[Chorus]

She's so calm, yet so confused

She don't know she's bein' used

She tries so hard, but it makes no difference

'Cause biting the bullet is bad for business

It's bad for business

[Bridge]

The pretty picture she tried to find

Were only real inside her mind

She broke a window inside her soul

It hurts more than you'll ever know

[Chorus]

She's so calm, yet so confused

She don't know she's bein' used

She tries so hard, but it makes no difference

'Cause biting the bullet is bad for business

She's so calm, yet so confused

She don't know she's bein' used

She tries so hard, but it makes no difference

'Cause biting the bullet is bad for business

It's bad for business, bad for business

It's bad for business
