when you laugh it just makes me cry 
when you cry it just makes me smile 
when you smile well that makes me mad 
when you're mad it just makes me laugh 
when you're high it just makes me low 
when you're low it just picks me up 
you feel up well that gets me down 
when you're down it makes me feel high 

and you never gave me anything but i ended up with less 
blame it on the bad actress 
and i never asked for everything but i ended up a mess 
blame it on the bad actress 

if you leave that means i'll stay 
if you stay i'll just have to go 
when you go then i'll have to wait 
if you wait i'll just have to leave 

and you never gave me anything but i ended up with less 
blame it on the bad actress 
and i never asked for everything but i ended up a mess 
blame it on the bad actress 

if i was to say anything you'd say the opposite 
maybe try to suggest something and just get torn to bits 
we could both think up the same thing and you'd say say something else 
we could not agree on one thing except for how it felt 

and you never gave me anything but i ended up with less 
blame it on the bad actress 
and i never asked for everything but i ended up a mess 
blame it on the bad actress 

and you never gave me anything never gave me anything 
never gave me anything never gave me anything 
never gave me anything but i ended up a mess 
blame it on the bad actress
