[Verse 1]
In the morning we trash the bed
You bring me coffee, black and boiling
Then we start up again
And the coffee goes cold
I wake up drinking from your lips
Kisses warm and tender
And I'd give up the world
Just to see you smile
[Chorus]
One thing I'll never understand
It's become my problem
And it's something that's right out of my hands
My hands are clean
What makes such a sweet guy turn so mean?
[Verse 2]
I went to town with a moody man
A handsome Dr Jekyll
He was right by my side
Turning into Mr Hyde
I ran for cover, but I ran too slow
I was stitched by strangers
And they shook their heads
That somebody could do the things you did
[Chorus]
One thing I'll never understand
It's become my problem
And it's something that's right out of my hands
My hands are clean
What makes such a sweet guy turn so mean?
[Bridge]
Well, I must be mad, I must be crazy
Everyone tells me so
All of my life, I've see it coming
Now I'm facing the wall, I'm waiting for the blow
[Verse 3]
In the morning you kiss my head
You say it was somebody else, you weren't feeling yourself
Now you're down on your knees
Begging me, "Baby, baby, forgive me please"
I wake up aching from your touch
Every muscle tender
Then I look in your eyes, the way you smile
And I'm hypnotised
[Chorus]
One thing I'll never understand
It's become my problem
And it's something that's right out of my hands
My hands are clean
What makes such a sweet guy turn, I said, turn so mean?
[Outro]
Say, I wanna know
Why you turn so mean
Say, I wanna know
Why you turn, turn
I said babe
I said babe
I said babe
Babe, oh
