I wanted to do a really fast paced rap, with a chaotic ever shifting beat and narrative. I thought of most of the lyrics whilst waiting for one of those forever late buses.
Some of this might be fictional, maybe not; but I don't care.
lyrics
She didn't know about the other boy liked her that stupid swine I wanted her to be mine but little did she know that I was kissing her friend behind everyone’s backs It wasn't hard to pretend
Only caught once but we used wordplay caught by the triad the very next day
They never really got to me that far
I said bullshit and lead my mind ajar
Playing them at their own stupid game, it was an obvious hate campaign
You couldn't have her, the girl I let break me I opened my eyes and let the feelings escape me
I split in two like bacteria the whole thing was just hysteria
I’m sorry that I dragged her into my mess, it was a mistake I confess, I can’t believe it got this far a chain of events a huge disaster
Cover this bit of my life with a plaster can’t believe I didn’t do it faster
Cover this part of my life with a plaster a plaster a plaster
Oh dear. It’s the bit in the middle.
(Well) Little did she know that I was seeing her friend I never loved her, wasn’t hard to pretend
I’m gonna ask to hang out again, you know what goes down when we do
Always a fun always a laugh it’s so fucked up but we’re both used to that yeah,
I can’t sometimes stop thinking about it, I get to worked up and so frustrated
I lust for you and it’s not fair, I’m needing you and it’s not fair I’m wanting you and it’s not fair how can I get over there
I can’t even I can’t even I can’t even I can’t even I can’t even I can’t even oww
It’s not fair
