lyrics

Chorus (x2)
I know you hate me, but I
I just can't let you go
I need to tell you something
Something you need to know
You're always on my mind
I mean like, all the time
I thought you'd leave me but I
Guess that you're a part of me now

Verse 1
Met you in California
Of course you would be an American
And you into that nasty shit like me
Perversion is part of our heritage
Now, I don't know where you came from
But I hope you had some fun
'Cause you got boys and girls all over the world
I'm not the only one
Of course I'd be lying if I told you
That you never helped me out
That you never helped me get shit done
Or gave me mouth to mouth
But the truth is, you're not good for me
And I told you that shit too
But you never listen anyway
So I guess it's nothing new
Just leave me alone

Chorus (x2)
I know you hate me, but I
I just can't let you go
I need to tell you something
Something you need to know
You're always on my mind
I mean like, all the time
I thought you'd leave me but I
Guess that you're a part of me now

Verse 2
You see me? I'm not predisposed
People like you who need control
Changing y'all tune on cue for gold
Then you changing it again when you're feeling low
Won't be alone
Even though
You talk shit about everybody that you know
And when they leave, you crawl back inside your hole
And go to sleep by yourself in a fetal pose
Then you hit me up when you're feeling gross
Talkin' all slick like I didn't know
That's ashes to ashes, O's to O's
To each his own, but please, you need to grow
And to think, because he tell the truth, he cold
Go whatever way that the wind will blow
Two tissues, clean your nose
Best I can do if your ass won't clean your soul
Who you think taught you to be a pro?
Ass all pink like Sweet'n'Low
Acting like I was gon' be exposed
But it's hard to do that when my knees are closed
Lookin' all sleep
Better not sleep on me, that's comatose
Make me wanna call a priest, rabbi, and a monk on speakerphone
No use, cause we'd still be foes if we rowed a boat to the Poconos
Or we sippin' slow, down in Kokomo
Sandals on our feet as the wind'll blow
Askin' me if I know the deal
But your fate is sealed, kiss from a rose
Been protected, I don't need the toast
And I see right through you
I don't need a ghost
BITCH

Chorus (x2)
I know you hate me, but I
I just can't let you go
I need to tell you something
Something you need to know
You're always on my mind
I mean like, all the time
I thought you'd leave me but I
Guess that you're a part of me now
