"As Ugly As I Seem" lyrics - THE WHITE STRIPES

2, 3

I
I'm as ugly as I seem
Worse than all your dreams
Could ever make me out to be

And
It makes me want to scream
When it's Halloween
And the kids are laughing

The rogue
Is a bank he's never broke
But worth as much as a joke
That no one is laughing at

Can
You believe some things are not
Appealing and there's a spot?
On the ceiling of my childhood bedroom

And
Can these dreams that you can't imagine
But none of them match the vision
That you have decided for me

You
Want to take away from me
Things that are mine and it's not your right
I'll bet you wouldn't expect a fight, oh

Can it be
That I don't want what you want?
And the only thing I could care for
Is a place in a home that is safe and warm
Safe and warm, safe and warm, safe and warm
Safe

Judge
Yourself if you feel the need
Just let me alone to be
In search of the truth myself

There
Is a drop of blood on the ground
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
And I can't be sure if it's yours or mine

I
I'm as ugly as I seem
Worse than all your dreams
Could ever make me

Could ever make me
Could ever make me
Could ever make me
