[Verse 1: Howlin' Pelle Almqvist]
So what?
So what if I was wrong?
I said, "You can't get me
'Cause I am, far too strong"
That's when he hit me
And said, "That's not how it's gonna be"
Then he emptied all my pockets
While he emptied me
[Chorus 1: Howlin' Pelle, Vigilante Carlstroem]
So pick me up, take me in
Got to get away from him
Take me in, take my side
'Cause I really got to hide
'Cause if you don't then I'm through
'Cause no one knows what he might do
Take me in or lock me up
'Cause these beatings got to stop
I think I just ate too much
[Verse 2: Howlin' Pelle]
I
Thought I was through
I was lonely and frightened
Didn't know what to do
He was about to hit me
Ready to bust out all my teeth
If you get a cold it will only be
So much easier to breathe
[Chorus 2: Howlin' Pelle, Nicholaus Arson]
So pick me up, take me in
Got to get away from him
Got a cold, got no teeth
And it sure is easier to breathe
Still I don't like him, not one bit
'Cause he's still doing that same old shit
Beating me up, bringing me down
Although I wish, I wish
It was the other way around
[Chorus 3: Howlin' Pelle, Vigilante]
You picked me up, took me in
So that I could get away from him
Now how the future looks for me
That's what I'm about to see
But what I've learned from all of this
Is how it sets around my waist
How bad it was and still is
And of course how bad it tastes
I think I just ate too much
