[Verse 1] Who wants to be right as rain? It’s better when something is wrong You get excitement in your bones And everything you do’s a game When night comes, and you’re on your own You can say, “I chose to be alone” Who wants to be right as rain? It’s harder when you’re on top
[Chorus] ‘Cause when hard work don’t pay off and I’m tired There ain’t no room in my bed, as far as I’m concerned So wipe that dirty smile off We won’t be making up, I’ve cried my heart out And now I’ve had enough of love
[Verse 2] Who wants to be riding high When you’ll just crumble back on down? You give up everything you are And even then, you don’t get far They make believe that everything Is exactly what it seems But at least when you’re at your worst You know how to feel things
[Chorus] See, when hard work don’t pay off and I’m tired There ain’t no room in my bed, as far as I’m concerned So wipe that dirty smile off We won’t be making up, I’ve cried my heart out And now, I’ve had enough of (love)
[Bridge] Go ahead and steal my heart to make me cry again ‘Cause it will never hurt as much it did then When we were both right, and no one had blame But now, I give up on this endless game
[Verse 3] ‘Cause who wants to be right as rain? It’s better when something is wrong I get excitement in my bones Even though everything’s a strain When night comes, and I’m on my own You should know I chose to be alone Who wants to be right as rain? It’s harder when you’re on top
[Chorus] ‘Cause when hard work don’t pay off and I’m tired There ain’t no room in my bed, as far as I’m concerned So wipe that dirty smile off We won’t be making up, I’ve cried my heart out And now, I’ve had enough of—
[Outro] No room in my bed, as far as I’m concerned So wipe that dirty smile off We won’t be making up, I’ve cried my heart out And now, I’ve had enough of love
