sung by Jill Sobule

lyrics

There's a sucker dying every minute
A dinosaur fallen in the tar.
And though I swore I'd never be caught dead in it,
There you are.
I thought my feet were on the ground,
But I didn't think they'd sink down so far,
While my head was in the clouds,
Wishin' on a shooting star.

If you expect me to believe that it was all a big mistake,
Expect me to believe some other lie that's just as fake,
Expect me to believe I've got a heart that doesn't break,
Then I believe you've got another think comin'
And another thing goin',
And another thing goin'.

Well, it's not a tale that bears repeatin'
A serpent ensnares the trusting Eve.
But as soon as I found my Garden of Eden,
Had to leave.
I thought Paradise would last forever,
But I was just being so naive.
When you idolize a false God,
Ask and you shall not receive.

If you expect me to sit here and listen to your lame excuse,
Expect me to sit here and keep on takin' this abuse,
Expect me to sit here, say, "Here's my head.
Now where's the noose?"
Then I expect you've got another think comin'
And another thing goin',
And another thing goin'.

You got somethin' goin' on the side,
And it's somethin' I'm not goin' to ignore.
You got me comin' and goin' and bein' denied.
Well, here's another thing goin' right out your door.

Well, this love nightmare is finally over.
It's dawned on me where your heart must be
Would have happened before if you'd told me so
Verbally.
Your tongue is tied, but the last word's in.
Keep your eyes open wide, 'cause they can't see
There's a sucker dying every minute
But isn't me.

And did you think I'd sit and watch you
put on your pathetic show?
Did you think that if you didn't tell me, I would never know?
Did you think that even if I found out, I still wouldn't go?
Well, then I think you got another think comin'
And another thing goin', etc.
