Warren Zevon — Accidentally Like a Martyr Preludes

[Verse 1] Why'd I let you get to me again? You get me all confused Can I ever get it through my head I'm only being used? Why'd I let you get to me again? Why'd I let you in? Knowing you were only gonna nail me up again [Chorus] Making mad love, shadow love Random love and abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder [Verse 2] Why'd I let you get to me again? And treat me like a fool? Sometimes I wonder if you'rе being deliberatеly cruel Can't I ever get it through my head? Maybe time I learn That the greedy just get greedier And the vulnerable get burned [Chorus] Making mad love, shadow love Random love and abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr, yeah The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder [Verse 3] Why'd I give you all the love I had To squander like we did? My friends all shuck their heads and sighed "Such a naive kid" My friends all shuck their heads and wished I'd find somebody else And now I'm all alone and feeling sorry for myself [Chorus] Making mad love, shadow love Random love and abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder, yeah [Bridge] Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey [Chorus] We were making mad love, shadow love Random love and abandoned love Accidentally like a martyr Hey, hey, hey The hurt gets worse and the heart gets harder [Outro] Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey
