Smart Talking
It's not that bad, I'm just hungover,
and I can't talk to you sober,
but don't you go and take a number,
I don't want you to try back later.
I'm not trying to be rude,
or cop you an attitude,
I just keep my soul in the nude,
and I'm telling you the truth
There's a track that goes around my head,
around and around the things you said.
Telling me that my heart is my dead,
then say you meant something else instead
I know you all too well,
so save your smart talking.
You think that you want me,
but you always start walking,
if I give in, so I won't give in.
We're not lovers, we're not friends,
so please don't call here again.
You're last weeks news, an old article,
and you never keep your words simple.
You think you've got a magnetic pull,
but I'm calling you out, it's all bull.
Sorry if that's not eloquent,
but honestly I'm kind of spent.
What you want, get after it,
unless it's me then you can't have it.
There's a track that goes around my head,
around and around you want in my bed,
but this time baby, I'm talking sense,
so bark up another tree instead.
I know you all too well,
so save your smart talking.
You think that you want me,
but you always start walking,
if I give in, so I won't give in.
We're not lovers, we're not friends,
so please don't call here again.
You're like takeout that's already gone bad,
something no one wishes they had.
Good enough to throw in a trash can,
but you know I'll be washing my hands.
I shut down the track around my head
so rest in peace because we are dead.
I know you all too well,
so save your smart talking.
You think that you want me
but you always start walking
if I give in, so I won't give in.
