Well, you say, I've got trouble
I've got trouble all over me
I've got trouble since the day I was born

And it's not just a struggle
Well, it's the blood running through my veins
And it's all the clothes I've ever worn

'Cause when I'm with you I feel so overdressed

The trouble is I'm not above or beyond anything
So I know you must be good for me
As far as you can and as bad as I am
Oh, I know you must be good for me

'Cause I'm a terrible lover
I never love you the way I should
Oh, and every single reason's wrong

Oh, my sister, my brothers
We've got history on our heels
And we're running like we broke the law

With friends like these, tell me, who needs the police

The trouble is I'm not above or beyond anything
So I know you must be good for me
As far as you can and as bad as I am
Oh, I know you must be good for me

And we're making noise in the temple
We're skimming off the top
And we don't want you to suffer
But you don't want to stop
Because you know that it's the only way

And the trouble is I'm not above or beyond anything
So I know you must be good for me
As far as you can and as bad as I am
Oh, I know you must be good for me

Oh, I know you must be good for me
Yeah, I know you must be good for me
