Generate meaning
1
Why do you always seem to criticize me
2
Seems like everything I do just turns out wrong
3
Why don't you come on out and despise me
4
So I could pack my bag and baby I'd be gone
5
Remember when you used to call me honey
6
I'd turn around and call you honey too
7
You might think it's a joke, but it ain't funny
8
To hurt someone who's so in love with you
9
Chorus:
10
A clown puts his makeup on upside down
11
So he wears a smile even when he wears a frown
12
You might think I'm here when you put me down
13
But actually I'm on the other side of town.
14
My body's in this room with you just catchin' hell
15
While my soul is drinking beer down the road a spell
16
You might think I'm listening to your grocery list
17
But I'm leaning on the jukebox and I'm about halfway there
18
I'm sittin' on a chair just behind my ear
19
Playing dominoes and drinking some ice cold beer
20
When you get done talking I'll come back downstairs
21
And assume the body of the person you presume who cares
22
Chorus
23
I'm Across the river on the other side of town
24
In my mind I'm on the other side of town
