lyrics

it's like boom, I see you and vision zooms
must escape from my doom before the kid's consumed
all the afternoons that i spent in your room
add up to nothing or less, perhaps even gloom

you pulled my heart strings and you spun them in your loom
i must admit you swept me away just like a broom
but i guess you can't assume when the heart is abloom
je te souhaite un bon hiver, flume

make room for big whatever, I'm wearin patent leather
growin lavender and heather, yo, i control the weather
better make way, i'm blowin up like trevor forever
when i make like john lennon, everybody come together

right now, over me, officer, oversee
i'm high like cliffs of dover, over sea
catch me doin homebrew, see me makin clover mead
catch me on mars, dude, up where all the rovers be


if you want it, you know that you could get it
but you won't, so i'm tryin to forget it
if i saw you out, you might distract me for a minute
but you made this a game, so now i'm gonna win it

you start something, i think that you should finish
blame me all you want, it doesn't make a difference
i'm goin places, but you're stuck at the beginning
consider the events, the outcome is always fitting




Monday morning, skies were gray, you walked me all the way to the bus stop
On the way, I told you that I feel stuck and I may wanna break up
They said we were babies and maybe they were right
It's just the way you called me baby made me take right off like a swift in flight

We tailor-made for breaking, babe, don't hate the game if you keep on playing it
Love is like when you dance the tango, you know it takes two to make that thang go
Bang bang boom like you're doing merengue, gotta do both, you wanna hang with Hey Gay
Faith is just the truth seen through a veil, hazy so they say

It's crazy, like the old days, I always feel like I'm on display
If this is where my hope lay then maybe this is the place to stay
We don't have to play God to create a better mental state
Always being watched so big brother was the one to blame

I'll refrain from naming names but the main culprit was the hand of fate
Your guess as good as mine why the best laid plans are always baked
Hey, though, keep me on your radar, sorry things got so fubar
Saving for a new car, hope you get a new job, fast food's cool but it won't get you too far, gotta get paid, fool


I wanted to call you but I've got issues
Or maybe it's scar tissue cause I've been screwed
Used, chewed out and run through
Hanging on a thread, afraid of the truth

Relay, delay
I'll probably be this way until I'm lain down in my grave
I just wanna hear somebody say
You'll never fall again





i had 99 problems, and they were all you
i'm living problem free, now that i don't call you
yeah, i miss the days when i had you to call boo
everything i said, you know that it was all true

you always fall through, i'm peepin all blues,
as soon as i've forgotten, it's like you call me on queue
i'm movin past it, my future says, come on through
see me on bars, on point, on twitter, i'm all news

see me at malls, too, i'm gettin outside
clearly i'm much better off, now that i'm without your lies
i keep it all inside, i got a method now
i see that you still don't, you think you're special, wow

i think i'm special, too, so i set out to prove it
i look at what's wrong, and i try to improve it
if it seems simple, well, that's because it is
this is the breakup, good luck with all that is


i put the lime in the coconut, and suddenly i'm over you
this is the breakup, and this is way overdue
call it what you want, but you're aware of what you do
this isn't everything i need, but for now, it'll do

you got something i want, i got something that you need
you'll never harvest crops, if you never plant seeds
we'll never be together, and now i never wanna be
this is the breakup, the best gift you could get from me
