[Verse 1]
We were, we were, we were lovers
We had no one but armed puppets
We were touching, were turning
We were in to get to learning
Saw your mother at the river washing ribbons
Saw her sip, saw her sip the river
I've seen laymen up and walking
I've seen deaf and dead men talking
[Chorus]
And I have had enough of trouble
I've been paid in full and double
Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're able
[Verse 2]
I went dancing with my sister
Call her madam, call me mister
She wore a dress, it was nice and something
Underneath her dress was slipping
She did curtsy, she did cupid
She said she did something stupid
I said: who's the buster, guider?
I can't kill or catch a fighter
Point me in the right direction
Point me to the middle section
[Chorus]
And I have had enough of trouble
I've been paid in full and double
Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're able
Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're, if you're able
