Red wine like blood on the carpet
Cigarettes burn holes where my heart is
Temper, temper, you know that that's what I like
You're just doing what you do for reaction
I don't like this hotel, you can trash it
Temper, temper, you know that that's what I like, yeah

You start fights with everybody
I'm the one to say you're sorry
I know, we're wrong
But you're not 'round for long

I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only love you when you're gone

Watch your television crash on the pavement
Push and pull, yeah that's our arrangement
Temper, temper, baby, you do what you like
Razor blades on your tongue I can taste it
Forgetting me with a permanent vacation
Temper, temper, baby, you do what you like

You start fights with everybody
I'm the one to say you're sorry
I know, we're wrong
But you're not 'round for long

I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only love you when you're gone

I know we're wrong (a-ya-yeah)
But I don't mind a little psycho
Temper m-mm (a-ya-yeah, a-ya-yeah, a-ya-yeah)
I know we're wrong (a-ya-yeah)
But I don't mind a little psycho
Temper, temper (a-ya-yeah, a-ya-yeah, a-ya-yeah)
Yeah, ow

I only like you when you're-- leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only love you when you're gone
I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only like you when you're leaving
I only love you when you're gone
I only love you when you're gone
