Stain

Always been busy with nothing to do
Got a bottle of something that I'm dying to lose
Swallow my pride, keep the phone on mute
Till you call, why'd you call?

Caught between you and the telephone jack
Damn it right when I was getting my life on track
You saw an opportunity to come running back
And the walls start to fall

It's a stain
That I'll never get out
It's a stain
The kind they warn you about
It's so vain
To be calling the house
It's a stain
That I can't get out

I've been getting out the house
Even better my head
Had a gap tooth smile
Rolling round in my bed
And to top it all off
I lost all my regrets
Standing tall
Please don't call

Well I'm sorry that it didn't work out with your man
But there's nothing fun in feeling like a backup plan
Just write a few songs
Put a pen in your hand
That worked for me babe, hey

It's a stain
That I'll never get out
It's a stain
The kind they warn you about
It's so vain
To be calling the house
It's a stain
That I can't get out

It's a stain
That I'll never get out
It's a shame
Oh, mama warned me about the day
That you'd be coming around
It's a stain, hey, hey

It's a stain
That I'll never get out
It's a stain
The kind they warn you about
It's so vain
To be calling the house
It's a stain
That I can't get out
