GRIMES
"Kill V. Maim"
(Claire Boucher)

I got in a fight, I was indisposed
I was in, despite all the wicked prose
But I'm only a man, and I do what I can

I got friends in high places
I get out for free
I got in a fight but they don't know me
'Cause I'm only a man
And I do what I can

[Pre-Chorus:]
B-E-H-A-V-E
Arrest us
Italiana mobster
Looking so precious
B-E-H-A-V-E
Never more
You gave up being good when you declared a state of war

[Chorus:]
Eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh
Are you going to the party?
Are you going to the show?

'Cause I'm only a man, do what I can, oh
'Cause I'm only a man, do what I can
Are you going to the party? Are you going to the show?

I did something bad, maybe I was wrong
Sometimes people say that I'm a big time bomb
But I'm only a man
And I do what I can

[Pre-Chorus:]
B-E-H-A-V-E
Arrest us
Italiana mobster
Looking so precious
B-E-H-A-V-E
Never more
You gave up being good when you declared a state of war

[Chorus:]
Eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh
Are you going to the party? Are you going to the show?

'Cause I'm only a man, do what I can, oh
'Cause I'm only a man, do what I can
Are you going to the party? Are you going to the show?

[Bridge:]
Oh, the fire it's all right
'Cause we can make 'em all go crazy
We can make 'em wanna die
Oh, the fire it's all right
The people touch it
I can't touch it
Even though it's mine

[Chorus:]
Eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh eh
I don't behave, I don't behave, oh
(Are you going to the party? Are you going to the show?)

'Cause I'm only a man, do what I can, oh
'Cause I'm only a man, do what I can

[Outro:]
B-E-H-A-V-E
Arrest us
Italiana mobster
Looking so precious
B-E-H-A-V-E
Never more
You gave up being good when you declared a state of war
