[Verse 1] Lent you Outsidaz and my new Badu While you were thinking I didn't have a clue Tough to sort files with your voice in my head So then I bribed you downstairs with a Marlboro Red, uh huh And now I feel so small discovering you knew How much more torture would you have put me through? You probably saw me laughing at all your jokes Or how I did not mind when you stole all my smokes, yeah [Chorus] And although my pride is not easy to disturb, yeah You sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb With your battered jeans and your Beasties tee Now I can't work like this, with you next to me [Verse 2] And although he's nothing in the scheme of my years It just serves to bludgeon my futile tears And I'm not use to this, no no, I observe yeah, I don't chase But now I'm stuck with consequences, thrust in my face, yeah And the melodramas of my day deliver blows And that surpa** your rejection, it just goes to show A simple attraction that reflects right back to me So I'm not as into you as I appear to be [Chorus] [Verse 3] His message was brutal but the delivery was kind Maybe if I get this down, I'll get it off my mind, yeah Oh it serves to condition me and smoothen my kinks Despite my frustration for the way that he thinks And I knew the truth, when it came, would be to that effect At least you're attracted to me which I did not expect Didn't think you'd get my number down as such But I never hated myself, for my age so much, yeah [Chorus x2]
