Track 8 from "This Machine Kills Bathos" LP (Disc 1), by Patrick Porter (2006)
lyrics
SUMMER OF VIOLENCE (SORRY ISN'T ENOUGH)
(Lyrics by Patrick Porter c. 2006)
Baby, don't break my balls
You made me, with all your house calls
Save me, as if you could, I know
It could end at any time
Taking a ride with society is finest
You broke the law in the summer of violence
Love is too wrong, hate is too strong
Thinking of you when the due is what rent is
I knew what I meant when I started this sentence
We've gone on too long
We've gone on too long
Baby, there's no reason to spit
You can always come over and house-sit
Don't think "What did it mean"
It could end at any time
Taking a ride with society is finest
You broke the law in the summer of violence
Love is too wrong, hate is too strong
Thinking of you when the due is what rent is
I knew what I meant when I started this sentence
We've gone on too long
We've gone on too long
