Sugar Coat lyrics

I turn the bathroom light on

To take my make up off

Look at myself in the eye

I wonder why I wear it anyway

Another car drives by

I wonder where you are

The kids are all in bed

And everything but you is in its place

From the street view lookin' in

It's pretty as a picture

Our home sweet home

[Chorus]

Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'

Sometimes I wish I liked pills

Wish I could sleep with a stranger

But someone like me never will

Sometimes I hardly can stand it

I just smile with a lump in my throat

Sometimes I wish I could bear it

Didn't have to wear this sugar coat

Passed down from my mom

She wore it so well

She'd rest it on my shoulders

Say it's colder out there than you think

Would I recognize myself?

Would anybody else,

If I took the damn thing off and burned it?

[Chorus:]

Oh, this damn sugar coat

In one of these nights I'll meet you in the driveway

And tell you to go to hell

Go to hell

[Chorus:]

This damn sugar coat

Oh, this sugar coat

This damn sugar coat
