Enid we never really knew each other anyway
Enid we never really knew each other anyway
It took me a year to believe it was over
It took me two more to get over the loss (whoa whoa)
I took a beating when you wrote me those letters
And every time I remember the taste of your lip gloss
same as intro, but end every line on the G chord)
There were times when I wanted to hurt you
And there were times when I know that I did (whoa whoa)
There were times when I thought I would kill you
But can you blame me I was only a kid
Now tell me why we never really respected each other
And tell me why I never believed that you were a person too
I always thought that you fancied my brother
I may not have liked it oh but memory is a strange thing oh and
Enid, Enid I remember you
Repeat first verse
(Chords for this part are same as in the "Now tell me why..." part above)
Now it's not fair to say that it's 'cause I was 3 inches shorter then
And it's not fair to say that it's 'cause I was only 15 years old
But maybe it's fair to say there was a lack of communication
I took the phone message oh and speaking of communication oh well
Enid, Enid you caught a cold
I could get a job I could pay the phone bills
I could cut the lawn cut my hair cut out my cholesterol
I could work overtime I could work in a mine
I could do it all for you
BUT I DON'T WANT TO!!
Repeat chorus several times and stir frequently
