Tame Impala Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
Said you wouldn′t be home late tonight
I gave up waiting at seventeen past midnight
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine
Thank god I′ve been blessed with a patient mind
Cause what I want to happen won't happen in a very long time
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge
