[Verse]
Well you're trDmaipsin' up and down my backyardC  
Get too cold, I'd Gdie
DmDiggin' through my trashcans
With that whCite rope tied around your Gneck
You misDmtake me for some southern goddessC  
Some delta girl done Gwrong
But I'm Dmfixin' the knot through whatCever I have to
To Bmstay silent, get gonEe
[Chorus]
One two tAmhree, I hate Cme
There's Gno one else who I know how to Dbe
Four five Amsix, oh your Cbody makes me sick
GDon't take it away from me just yDet
There's Cmno one I can think of
That I can Gstand less than you
DBmon't you want to touch my hands befAmore you go?
I think I'm confuGsed
[Verse]
I can fDmeel my food digestin'
And I'm Cbeggin' it to Gcease
My sDmtomach's crushed against my lungs and yoCu're, you're pushin' at my Gseams
And I sDmeen the way you eye me up,
Like a chCunk of meat, like a chunk of meat gone Gbad
Like you were Dmwishing I was something still worth hCaving
You can Bmgo ahead, go ahead and hEave
[Chorus]
One two tAmhree, I still Chate me
There's Gno one else who I know how to Dbe
Four five Amsix, oh your Cbody makes me sick
GDon't take it away from me just yDet
There's Cmno one I can think of
That I can Gstand less than you
DBmon't you want to touch my hands befAmore you go?
I think I'm confuGsed
