My 16th Apology (Remastered)

The things I said about you
Maybe we could work it out someday ...

Lah la, la-la-la
La-la-la, lah

Things were going pretty well 'till I died
On that summer afternoon
When you broke down before my eyes

Well I got a streak of meanness
A clumsy way of speaking
And I don't know where I get it from
It must run in my family

Do I have to go down on my knees
This is my 16th apology to you
With friends like me
Who needs enemies?

I got a river inside the size of my rage
Which is really something else
When you think of my tender age

Well I gotta way about me (oh yeah)
But it's hard for me to see it (oh yeah)
And I don't know when I'm in the wrong
Why am I so hard to please

This is my 16th apology to you
Do I have to go down on my knees (for you, yeah)
With friends like me
Who needs enemies?

The things I said about you
Were all said yesterday
I didn't mean to hurt you (ooh-ooh!)
Maybe we could work it out someday

Lah la, la-la-la
La-la-la, lah
La-la-la, la-la-la

Well I got a streak of meanness (oh yeah)
A clumsy way of speaking (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah)
And I don't know when I'm in the wrong
Why am I so hard to please?

Do I have to go down on my knees?
This is my 16th apology to you
With friends like me who needs enemies?

Lah la, la-la-la
La-la-la, lah

Lah la, la-la-la
La-la-la, lah
La-la-la, la-la-la
Didn't your mother ever tell you
(la-la-la)
To err is human, to forgive is divine
(la-la-la-la)
Lah la, la-la-la
La-la-la
Oh well, I'll see you in the next life
Lah la, la-la-la
La-la-la (to Coda)
