Bm                             A          Bm A
It's not her fault that she's so irresistible
Bm                        A                Bm A
But all the damage she's caused is unfixable
A                           G        Bm
Every twenty seconds you repeat her name
                      A  G         F#
But when it comes to me you don't care
If I'm alive or dead so

Chorus:
  Bm
Objection
A                G
I don't want to be the exception
F#
To get a bit of your attention
Bm            A
Love is for free and
G
I'm not your mother
F#
But you don't even bother
Bm
Objection
A              G
I'm tired of this triangle
F#
Got dizzy dancing tango
Bm            A            G
I'm falling apart in your hands again
F#
No way
F#              Bm
I've got to get away

Next to her cheap silicone, I look minimal
That's why in front of your eyes, I'm invisible
But you've got to know small things also count
Better put your feet on the ground
And see what it's about, so

Chorus:
Objection
I don't wanna be the exception
To get a bit of your attention
I love you for free and I'm not your mother
But you don't even bother
Objection!
The angles of this triangle
Got dizzy dancing tango
I'm falling apart in your hands again
No way, no, no, no, no

G
I wish there was a chance for
Bm
You and me
G
I wish you could find our
Bm
Place to be
  A    G   F#
Away from here

This is pathetic
And sardonic
And sadistic
And psychotic
Tango is not for three
Was never meant to be
But you can try it
Rehearse it
Or train like a horse
But don't you count on me
Don't you count on me boy

Chorus:
Objection
I don't wanna be the exception
To get a bit of your attention
I love you for free and I'm not your mother
But you don't even bother
Objection
I'm tired of this triangle
Got dizzy dancing tango
I'm falling apart in your hands again
No way, I've got to get away

Get away, get away, get away
I'm falling apart in your hands again
Get away
I'm falling apart in your hands again
Get away, get away
