Texty: Aimee Mann. Backfire.

(A.Mann, J.Brion)

Verse 1:
I've got some cookies from
Our junk food run
And here's a couple of beers
So let's go create some fun
Supplies are limited
And I'm all out
Of any explanations
Of what I'm all about
I'm tired
Of having to try
To convince you if I
Go along it all will

Chorus:
Back-fire
I know you had plans
Your intentions were grand
but it's out of my hands

I'm tired
I cannot seem to
Get a message to you
That the rescue you planned on has just

Chorus:
Backfired
I know you had plans
Your intentions were grand
But it's out of my hands nows

It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands now (repeat)

And this isn't the way I pictured it
Either... (repeat)
