Better Off Without You

The Clarks

You are sultry, dirty, soft and hard

You are close to me and you're so far

And I'm thinking of the time we spent together

Now I'll bury this in my backyard



Sometimes I sit and wonder

But I'll never dial your number

'Cause I'm having fun looking out for number one

And I'm doing all the things I like to do

I'm having fun cause I knew it all along

I'd be better off without you



You are guilty, pretty, high and low

You're a place to stay and a time to go

And I'm searching through the things you left behind here

Now it's time for me to let it go



Sometimes I sit and wonder

But I'll never dial that number

'Cause I'm having fun looking out for number one

And I'm doin all the things I like to do

I'm having fun 'cause I knew it all along

I'd be better off without you



Late at night you pick up the telephone

Call me up and cry 'cause you're all alone

I don't care

Apologize for taking my cigarettes

Now it's time to feel all the side effects

Missing the life you had
