Baller of Twine

(Melanie Thompson)

An entanglement? Is that really the new term we are now using to describe an adulterous affair?

Verse 1.
 Remember me?
 I'm the love 
 you left dangling on a string. 
 Fell flat on my face 
 after that Mr. Green.
 Who are you to imply 
 that it was my fault. 
 Why, I ought to teach you 
 the lesson you taught.

Chorus.
 Me, I'm a scholar. 
 You, you're a baller 
 of twine. 
 You'll take whatever 
 when there's nothing better 
 in sight. 
 Knock it off.
 Knot tonight.

Verse 2.
 Remember me?
 I'm the love 
 you left hanging by a thread. 
 Kicked to the curb. 
 Dropped off the ledge.
 Why do you insist
 the blame is all mine.
 Why, I ought to show you
 the extent of your crime.

Chorus.
 Me, I'm a lawyer.
 You, you're a baller 
 of twine. 
 You'll take whatever 
 when there's nothing better 
 in sight. 
 Knock it off.
 Knot tonight.

Verse 3.
 Remember me?
 I'm the love
 you left swinging on a line.
 Passed out on the beach.
 Washed away at high tide.
 Why do you continue 
 to suggest that we meet.
 Why, I ought to deck you,
 shipwreck you, you creep.

Chorus.
 Me, I'm a harbor.
 You, you're a baller 
 of twine. 
 You'll take whatever 
 when there's nothing better 
 in sight. 
 Knock it off.
 Knot tonight.
