The Best Of The First 10 Years - Anniversary Collection

Break For The Border

baby baby baby you've been giving me hell
and thats why sometimes i just have to yell:
Hell's Belle!
Oh babe you're the belle from hell

she was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
you were working as a server in a cafeteria
i leaned across the counter and i asked you out
my friends made brutal fun of me - dude what's that all about

when i came to your parents house to pick you up
you had to beg your dad for 20 bucks to fill your cup
without a word he threw 20 singles on the floor
it was all that i could do to get us both out the door

a few dates later, you whine "you're too old"
you're 19, I'm 23, has your brain gone cold?
Then for no clear reason you move to the UK
I visit you there, i lose my luggage on the way

baby baby baby you've been giving me hell (givin me hell)
and thats why sometimes i just have to yell:
Hell's Belle!
Oh babe you're the belle from hell

the UK didn't work out, now you move out west
I visit you there cuz - I'm just the best
waitin at the bar for your shift to end
unaware the bartender is your special friend

you make me take you to a vegan place, it really stinks
then you tell me you fuck the dude just served me drinks

baby baby baby you've been giving me hell (givin me hell)
and thats why sometimes i just have to yell:
Hell's Belle!
Oh babe you're the belle from hell

baby baby baby you've been giving me hell (givin me hell)
and thats why sometimes i just have to yell:
Hell's Belle!
Oh babe you're the belle from hell

A few years later and you phone me up
say you're livin in the city in a Brooklyn walkup
you whine about the latest guy who shacks up with you
too unstable to get through a job interview

I pity you as I sit watching you on your bed
sorry darling: I'm engaged to be wed
you dug yourself a hole, and I can't get you out
but thanks for years of misery, embarrassment and doubt

Sure you were pretty back in the day.
But some things are more important than a lovely face.
I gave you all I had and woulda done so much more;
My reward you telling me I made you feel like a whore?

baby baby baby you been giving me hell (givin me hell)
and thats why sometimes i just have to yell:
Hell's Belle!
Oh babe you're the belle from hell

baby you're the belle from hell (from hell)
baby you're the belle from hell (bell from hell)
baby you're the belle from hell (hell's bell)
baby you're the belle from hell
