Ben Harper - Lay There & Hate Me lyrics

(Hoo, hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo, hoo) Lay there & hate me Lay there and burn One side to the other you toss and turn Never trust a woman, never trust a woman Who loves the blues Mistake number one I made it three times today We'd best talk it over How there's nothing left to say I feel like an underpaid concubine Who's overstayed her welcome You gave me an eight-page letter Front and back Written in your favorite colours Blood and black You choose your words as careful As you'd choose your own grave stone Lay there & hate me Better than being alone Had to fight your way in You got to fight your way out Ain't no fool like the fool you love So let me hear you shout Shake down, break down Just can't sit still You cut off your hair and sold it For your pretty little pill I've learn some things about myself I wish I didn't know You gave me an eight page letter Front and back Written in your favorite colours Blood and black You choose your words as careful As you'd choose your own grave stone You lay there & hate me Better than being alone Had to fight your way in Got to fight your way out Ain't no fool like the one you love Now let me hear you, hear you, hear you shout Lay there & hate me Cold as a stone I just hope it's better Than sitting alone Never trust a woman who loves the blues Gave me an eight page letter Front and back Written in your favorite colours Blood and black You choose your words as careful As you'd choose your own grave stone Lay there and hate me Better than being alone Got to fight your way in Now you got to fight your way out Ain't no fool like the fool you love So let me hear you, let me hear you shout Let me hear you, let me hear you shout Yeah, yeah You just lay there with an eight page letter In your favourite colors Blood and black
