"Too Little, Too Late, Too Bad" lyrics

"Too Little, Too Late, Too Bad"

I see you on your knees
As I go walking by
Begging, "Darling, baby, please
Don't leave me high and dry"
Well I tell you right now
My dear old "used-to-be"
That ship, it ain't just sailed
It's way on out to sea
(Gettin' smaller every minute)

Too little, too late, too bad
I was the last chance at love you've ever had
Too many lies
Too many alibis
Too little, too late, too bad

Every night I wait for you
To stumble through that door
With the smell of cheap perfume
And ready for a war
Like a fool I fought you
And like a fool I cried
Like a fool I thought you
Were about to turn the tide
I was wrong, yeah

Too little, too late, too bad
I was the last chance at love you've ever had
Too many lies
Too many alibis
Too little, too late, too bad

You said you were gonna change
You liar
You said you were gonna set my world
On fire
I'm getting mighty tired of your little infatuations
'Cause now I'm gonna change my situation, yeah
You swore up and down
You'd stop getting in your kicks
But I know what you are
You're just an old dog with old tricks, yeah

Too little, too late, too bad
I was the last chance at love you've ever had
Too many lies
Too many alibis
Too little, too late, too bad
Too little too late too bad
Too little too late too bad
(Yes it is)
