I put your stuff out on the porch - lettin' you slide
You pissed in your pants and put out the torch - lettin' you slide
You splattered the bathroom with your hair dye - lettin' you slide
I'm a kickin' you out and you know why
Yeah, I been letting you slide
You been along for the ride
You put your cane into my amp - lettin' you slide
When it comes to losers, you're the champ - lettin' you slide
From my garden I pull your weed - lettin' you slide
Your stupid ego I will not feed - no
Yeah, I been letting you slide
You been along for the ride
Yeah, I been letting you slide
You've been a thorn in my side
I put your stuff out on the porch - lettin' you slide
You pissed in your pants and you put out the torch - lettin' you slide
You splattered the bathroom with your hair dye - lettin' you slide
I'm a kickin' you out and you know why.. boy
Yeah, I been letting you slide
You been along for the ride
Yeah, I been letting you slide
You've been a thorn in my side
Get on outta here boy
Took me three weeks to clean my bathroom
