I'm a beast

I'm a disappointment

And I've earned your contempt

I was rash I was wrong

Oh Jerusha I'm no good at being strong

So many times I wanted to tell you

But I lost my nerve

Now I feel your scorn and frustration

It's a bitter blow I well deserve

I'm a beast

I was over zealous

Guess I have a jealous heart

I was daft I was blind

But Jerusha I never meant to be unkind
