Listening Lyrics

We've never agreed

We're both too conceited to

Ever concede

To being defeated

I know that you cheated

I know that your DM's

Can be deleted

Now you've retreated

You found what you needed

I send you a text

And you never read it

Won't throw me a bone

Again on your phone

Like we live alone

A couple ah strangers

Sharing a home

Unfair and unvarying

You compare me and a disciplinarian You got too much baggage

Don't ask me to carry 'em

We are two souls

Who share an aquarium

I thought that I told you

You don't got a shot

I won't buy the cow and

I won't tie the knot

I don't wanna beef

So I go vegetarian

Don't take a thief

To be a barbarian

Won't never be ready

To be a pair again

This will not ever

End with us marryin'

Quit checkin' out cuz

This ain't a Library

The only (Merriam) marrying

For me is the Dictionary

There you go daring

Me to abuse you

I call a truce

And you say

"Screw you!"

Fine

Move your caboose

I gotta get past you

Before my bad side gets loose

So I was speaking

All freaking evening

You didn't hear a damn thing today You were daydreaming

And missed the meaning

You don't hear a damn thing I say You stare unblinking

What if I'm screaming?

You're not listening anyway

You don't wanna hear

What I wanna say

That is a game

That two can play

Call me a crook

You're such a cliché

You left me shook

Like popping Champaign

I don't wanna listen

Whatever you say

The butt of it all

Cuz I'm an ash-tray

You had my attention

What a damn shame

Lovin' the tension

Go smear a campaign

My feelings for you

Have been overridden

You put me on mute

It can't be forgiven

And you want a ribbon

For all of your fiction

Make me the villain

You be the victim

Well what a new and

Novel depiction

Hang on the cross

Your own crucifixion

I'm gonna walk

Like an Egyptian

Turn a new leaf

Then the ignition

Man I'm going bananas

I'm reeling

I'm bout to split

You're not that appealing

I'm switching up the

Story and feeling

Been moving up

My floor is your ceiling

You've got to be kidding

These sides you keep flipping

You draw the lines

I get to tripping

Important to listen

But your track is skipping

You are not Jordan

And I am nobody's Pippen

So I was speaking

All freaking evening

You didn't hear a damn thing today You were daydreaming

And missed the meaning

You don't hear a damn thing I say You stare unblinking

What if I'm screaming?

You're not listening anyway

You're not listening anyway
