[Verse 1]:
Mother
You were so good to me
Did what you could for me
Turns out you hurt me
Father
You were so bad to me
Kept all you had from me
Turns out you helped me
Sister
You were a part of me
There from the start for me
Until you left me
Brother
You were so cruel to me
Thought you could rule to me
Thought you’d control me
[Chorus]:
But then you couldn’t talk it through so then I tried to explain to you
But then you couldn't hear it through so then I had to talk dumb to you
But then you couldn’t see it through so then I had to do the work for you
But then you didn’t think it through and then I had to give to you your due
[Verse 2]:
Doctor
Thought you’d take care of me
But you just stared at me
And said I’m healthy
Preacher
You spoke the truth to me
Said what was soothing me
Until I asked you
Teacher
You pushed your word on me
You never heard from me
And that was your fault
Lawyer
Tried to defend for me
Tried to pretend for me
But I am guilty
[Chorus]:
But then you couldn’t talk it through so then I tried to explain to you
But then you couldn’t hear it through so then I had to talk dumb to you
But then you couldn’t see it through so then I had to do the work for you
But then you didn’t think it through and then I had to give to you your due
[Outro]:
Now I’m going away
I've nothing left to say
I’ll hold onto my peace
Until my sweet release
I’ve done what I need to
Now I must serve my due
Though I may look guilty
This ain’t the last you’ll see of me
Mother
You were so good to me
Did what you could for me
Turns out you hurt me
Father
You were so bad to me
Kept all you had from me
Turns out you helped me
Sister
You were a part of me
There from the start for me
Until you left me
Brother
You were so cruel to me
Thought you could rule to me
Thought you’d control me
[Chorus]:
But then you couldn’t talk it through so then I tried to explain to you
But then you couldn't hear it through so then I had to talk dumb to you
But then you couldn’t see it through so then I had to do the work for you
But then you didn’t think it through and then I had to give to you your due
