[Verse 1]
The doctor will see you now
Book all the ends and outs
Could you call me up to tell me that?
I could use the heart attack
[Verse 2]
What’d you think you’d see
Barking up the family tree
Another drinker, another liar
Another see-through alibi-er
I’ve built a life running wild
[Chorus]
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
When you couldn’t take on me?
You couldn't take on me
[Verse 3]
Oh my angry heart
Is used to being torn apart
'Cause if I leave, then I’m alive
And least that I can say is I’m
Choosing the ride into the fire
[Chorus]
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
When you couldn’t take on me?
Oh you couldn't take on me
You couldn't take on me
You couldn't take on me
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
The doctor will see you now
Book all the ends and outs
Could you call me up to tell me that?
I could use the heart attack
[Verse 2]
What’d you think you’d see
Barking up the family tree
Another drinker, another liar
Another see-through alibi-er
I’ve built a life running wild
[Chorus]
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
When you couldn’t take on me?
You couldn't take on me
[Verse 3]
Oh my angry heart
Is used to being torn apart
'Cause if I leave, then I’m alive
And least that I can say is I’m
Choosing the ride into the fire
[Chorus]
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
When you couldn’t take on me?
Oh you couldn't take on me
You couldn't take on me
You couldn't take on me
Oh Marie, I coulda used the back-up
Why’d you leave to take on the weight of the world
