 The nicest  man
 I ever  met
 Was more  malicious
 than malcontent
 Yeah, he taught  me how
 to hold  my tongue
 And wait  to strike til
 their backs  were turned
 And you slither  away  like
 the snake  that you are
 Yeah, you slither  away
 like the snake  that you are
 And all  I ever did
 was look up  to you
 And if all  I ever
 did was let  let you down
 Ain't nothing stopping me now
 The vanities  fell
 correctly beneath
 The receding part
 of his twenties
 Was capital  M-E
 (I couldn't subscribe)
 Was capital  M-E  (but you
 can't say I didn't  try)
 You say  what you want
 (maybe I  didn't get  my way)
 So you say  what you want
 (maybe I didn't get  my way)
 But I got I got away
 (Repeat Chorus 1)
 Was it everything  you hoped for?
 Was it all  of that and
 more? Too  much too soon?
 Or too good  to be true?
 Was it everything  you hoped for?
 Was it all of that and more?
 (Repeat Chorus 1)
 And all  I ever did
 was look up  to you
 And if all  I ever
 did was let  let you down
 Ain't nothing stopping me now
