Trip My Wire

LYRICS TRIP MY WIRE

Be easy on me, I'm fragile

I'm easily broken

Be careful with me, I'm a fighter

And you're a cheat

And you're a liar

I don't need this anymore

This is not what I came for

I wont stand for this at all

I wont see you any more

Be easy on me, don't trip my wire

I'm a freak and I'm on fire

Be easy on me, trip my wire

I'm a freak and I'm on fire

I don't need this anymore

This is not what I came for

I wont stand for this at all

I wont see you any more

Be careful with me, I'm fragile

I'm a bitch babe and I'm on fire

Be careful with me, I'm fragile

I'm a bitch babe and I'm on fire

Ba ba tripping on my wire

Ba ba Oh man, baby I'm on fire

Ba ba ba babe on my wire

Ba ba ba babe I,m on fire

I'm a bitch bitch, babe I'm a liar

I'm a bitch bitch, babe I'm on fire

Be careful with me

Be careful with me

Be careful with me

On fire, babe

Tripping on my wire

I'm a freak freak freak

But babe I'm on fire

I don't need this anymore

This isn't what I came here for...

TRIP MY WIRE (LIVE LYRICS) 

Be easy on me, I'm fragile

I'm easily broken, be evil with me

I'm a fighter, you're a cheat, and you're a liar

I don't need this anymore

This is not what I came for

I won't stand for this at all

I won't see you anymore

(and all you do is) get burned, get burned get burned

Be easy on me, don't trip my wire

'Cause I'm a drunk and you're a trier

Be easy on me, trip my wire

I'm a freak, and I'm on fire

I don't need this anymore

This is not what I came for

I won't stand for this at all

I won't see you anymore

(and all you do is) Get burned, Get burned

Get burned ...

(Be careful with me, I'm fragile

I'm a bitch babe, and you're a liar)

Burn, Burn, Burn,and Burn

Trip, Trip, trip, tripping on my wire,

and oh my well then

Baby I'm a spider

Keep, keep, keep, on tripping on my wire

You can light my friend and baby I'm a fighter

[I'm a drunk drunk drunk, but you are even drunker]

You're a cheap, cheap, cheap, and baby on my wire

And I will think, think, think, but baby I'm a fighter

Be careful with me, be careful with me, be careful with me

I'm fragile

You'll still keep trip, tripping on my wire

I'm a freak, freak, freak, but Baby I'm on fire

I don't need this anymore

This isn't what I came here for..

You'd better trip trip tripping on my wire

You'd better grip grip gripping on it tighter

Trip My Wire is a amazingly extraordinary song and is sadly underrated. Anyone suffering any kind of abuse should be given the opportunity to listen to this song and encouraged to voice their grievances and get out of that destructive relationship. Shirl's 'little voice' in the middle of the song is heart-wrenching.
