Begging Bone (Early Demo Mix)Garbage

[Verse 1]
You're just like a dog with your begging bone
You're always chasing losers down those rabbit holes
You like them the best 'cause they are dangerous
And they get off on you and your subservience

[Chorus]
What can I do? Can't make a monkey out of you
I can't keep you on a leash, can't lock you in your room
I can't make you perfectly suspicious of the world
And can't teach you lessons that you never want to learn

[Verse 2]
You started to believe that you're completely unlovable
Which makes us want to laugh 'causе you're adorable
You say you've been dеpressed but know that you'll get over it
And you come back for more just like a pugilist

[Chorus]
What can I do? Can't make a monkey out of you
I can't keep you on a leash, can't lock you in your room
I can't make you perfectly suspicious of the world
And can't teach you lessons that you never want to learn

[Bridge]
What can you do? Can't make a monkey out of you
Can't keep you on a leash, can't lock you in your room
Can't make you perfectly suspicious of the world
Can't teach you lessons that you never want to learn

Garbage

Garbage is a Scottish-American Alternative rock band, formed April 8th 1994. Once producer Butch Vig decided to break out of the rock he had been producing ever since Nirvana’s Nevermind, he got together with his college/studio partners Duke Erikson and Steve Marker to write some demos that would basically be remixes in song form. Once someone commented that “it sounds like garbage”, Vig decided to embrace the name. Then they invited Scottish singer Shirley Manson after seeing her on MTV, and the band’s sound was completed with sly, dark and snarky lyrics delivered in a sultry way.

The band’s eponymous debut album was a surprise hit upon release in August 1995, selling more than 4 million copies worldwide. Follow-up Version 2.0 (1998) was equally successful, even receiving a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year. Then the band recorded “The World Is Not Enough” to the eponymous James Bond movie, and the record industry started to bring the band down.

Beautiful Garbage (2001) was barely promoted due to a release too close to the 9/11 attacks, and underperformed at the charts. Fourth album Bleed Like Me (2005) had a troubled production where bandmembers were frequently arguing, and eventually the album’s tour was cut short and Garbage disbanded for 2 years, only regrouped in 2007 to record new tracks for greatest hits compilation Absolute Garbage.
