Bastard Before Me Lyrics by The Customers

Green Bottle Thursday

1996

[Verse 1]
Why do we have to fight like this now?
What have I got to do with him?
He just wants to get away with what he can
He's a liar and a cheating man
[Chorus]
And there's nothing I can do to change it
Nothing I can say to break it
I got all the clues, no magic I can use to break his spell on you
He's the bastard before me, he's the bastard before me
He's the bastard before, don't let him ruin you
[Verse 2]
Can I kiss you on your indignation?
Why do you put me on the stand?
First anniversary at the police station
Do you think of him when you hold my hand?
[Chorus]
And there's nothing I can doto change it
Nothing Ican say to brеak it
I got all the clues, no magic I can use to brеak his spell on you
He's the bastard before me, he's the bastard before me
He's the bastard before, don't let him ruin you
