Intro
Verse 1
I've been known to wear a fine black suit and a murder of a tie
I've got miles on my shoes that your brothers can't buy
I've got more than your man, more than even what he wants
I carry each and every ghost of my lovers at once
Pre-chorus
And they say, sugar baby, we've got everything you need
Sugar baby, we've got something to see
Sugar baby, we've got everything you need
And even what you want
Chorus
So go tell everybody that you drove your poor lover crazy
Take a good look at just what the night did
There ain't nothing left of your dearly departed
And I just fell to pieces on the night, that you said you were leaving
You can't come back to the heart that you left
So go tell everybody
That your man is dead
Verse 2
And there's always just these three siren spirits always following me
They just appeared one night in the passenger seat
They tell me all about your sins, salivate from their tongues
And they kiss from their lips, but their fingers are so cold
Pre-chorus
To the touch, sugar baby, we've got everything you need
Sugar baby, we've got something to see
Sugar baby, we've got everything you need
And even what you want
Chorus
So go tell everybody that you drove your poor lover crazy
Take a good look at just what the night did
There ain't nothing left of your dearly departed
And I just fell to pieces on the night, that you said you were leaving
You can't come back to the heart that you left
So go tell everybody
That your man is dead
Bridge
Outro
I was a man of great sympathy
When I loved you baby
But tonight all my sympathy is gone
