"Falling Out" is a song by Ween from the 2000 album White Pepper.
Song Details[edit | edit source]
The lead vocals are sung by Gene Ween. Glenn McClelland plays keyboards, Claude Coleman plays drums, and Dave Dreiwitz plays bass.[1]
"Falling Out" dates back to at least the summer of 1998, when it was played live by Ween twice, almost two years before the release of White Pepper.[2] The song was played three more times in the fall of 2004, once by Gene Ween at a solo acoustic show[3], and twice by Ween proper.[2] With the exception of two performances by the Dean Ween Group in the spring of 2015[4][5], it was not played again until Ween reintroduced the song in 2023. Since 2023, it has been played live more regularly.[2]
Lyrics[edit | edit source]
I recall a time when we were lovers
Before you I hadn't any other
When the bad times came along
I turned and you had gone
From the start, I loved you, I was wrong
Falling out, it's the end
May as well have never been
The cards are up, the chips are all cashed in
You won't see me again
Don't consider me your friend
Falling out - look away - it's the end
Always thought of you as my big brother
Never knew we couldn't trust each other
Two faces I could see, as you shook my money tree
There's no more you and me, let it be
Falling out, it's the end
And I lose another friend
The cards are up, the chips are all cashed in
You won't see me again
Don't consider me your friend
Falling out - look away - it's the end
Falling out, it's the end
May as well have never been
The cards are up, the chips are all cashed in
You won't see me again
Don't consider me your friend
Falling out - look away - it's the end [6]
