Well it takes a special kind of girl
To appreciate someone like you
A monumental love affair with emptiness

And I guess we all could take a bit of
Saccharine now and then
To fill the space, sweet taste until the bitter comes

But anymore the words of father flannigan
He said there's no such thing as a bad boy
And you know I'd never met a man I didn't like
Until the day I let you sink your teeth into me

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

Well it tastes a special kind of girl
Just to tolerate the things you do

But anymore the words of father flannigan
He said there's no such thing as a bad boy
And you know we all could use a bit of
Discipline now and then
A starter course in pain and plastic fashion, yeah

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

You sank your teeth
Right into me
Now life is sweet
Down on my knees

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh

Life is sweet
When you're beat
On your knees
A whoa-oh-oh-oh
