Should have been different but
It wasn't different, was it
Same old story, dear john, and so long
Should have fit like a glove
Should have fit like a ring
Like a diamond ring
A token of true love
Should have all worked out
But it didn't
She should be here now
But she isn't

There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can't see I love you, you can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble

So now you're thinking 'bout
All you're missing -- how

Deep you're sinking, round and round and dragging down
Why don't you cash in your chips
Why don't you call it a loss
Not such a big loss, chalk it up better luck
Could have been true love
But it wasn't
It should all add up
But it doesn't

There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can't see I love you, you can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble

Should have all worked out
But it didn't
She should be here now
But she isn't

There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can't see I love you, you can't see she doesn't
But you just keep holding on
There's your trouble

Yes, I can see her
'Cause every girl in here wanna be her
Oh, she's a diva
I feel the same and I wanna meet her

They say she low down
It's just a rumor and I don't believe 'em
They say she needs to slow down
The baddest thing around town

She's nothing like a girl you've ever seen before
Nothing you can compare to your neighborhood
I'm tryna find the words to describe this girl
Without being disrespectful

The way that booty movin' I can't take no more
Have to stop what I'm doin' so I can pull her close
I'm tryna find the words to describe this girl
Without being disrespectful

Damn girl
Damn, you's a sexy chick
A sexy chick
Damn, you's a sexy chick
A sexy chick

Damn girl
Damn, you's a sexy chick

Damn, you's a sexy chick

Oh, she's a diva

The baddest thing around town

She's nothing like a girl you've ever seen before
Nothing you can compare to your neighborhood

Lily pink what do you think of in your head
Well, I s'pose I'd like to know what's in your heart and how it grows
Coil rows of things I threw up in your face
Sharpened pain again and again in your face

It's only 'cause I like to make
A slide slow into your warm insides
Bright and thick your head it sits up at the top
Taking swings I try to bring you down knock you off your balance

Your logic attracts
You break apart and find your bloody heart
Lily pink what do you think of
Lily pink what do you think of

I’m gonna pop some tags
Only got 20 dollars in my pocket
I-I-I'm hunting, looking for a come up
This is f***ing awesome

Walk into the club like "What up? I got a big cock!"
Nah, I’m just pumped, I bought some s*** from a thrift shop
Ice on the fringe is so damn frosty
The people like “Damn, that’s a cold ass honky!”
Rolling in hella deep, headed to the mezzanine
Dressed in all pink except my gator sh***, those are green
Draped in a leopard mink, girl standing next to me
Probably shoulda washed this, smells like R. Kelly's sheets
(Piss)
But s***, it was 99 cents!
copping it, washing it, 'bout to go and get some compliments,
passing up on those moccasins someone else has been walking in,
bummy and grudgy, f***ing it,
I am stunting and flossing and saving money and I’m hella happy
That’s a bargain, b****,
I’mma take your grandpa's style
I’mma take your grandpa's style, no for real, ask your grandpa
Can I have his hand-me-downs? (Thank you!)
Velour jumpsuit and some house slippers
Dookie brown leather jacket that I found (dig it!)
They had a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard
I bought a skeet blanket, then I bought a knee board
Hello, hello, my ace man, my Miller
John Wayne ain’t got nothing on my fringe game, hell no
I could take some Pro Wings, make them cool, sell those
The sneaker heads would be like “Ah, he got the Velcros”

I’m gonna pop some tags
Only got 20 dollars in my pocket
I-I-I'm huntin' lookin' for a come up
This is f***ing awesome

What you know about rocking a wolf on your noggin?
What you knowing about wearing a fur fox skin?
I’m digging, I’m digging, I’m searching right through that luggage
One man’s trash, that’s another man’s come up
Thank your granddad for donating that plaid button up shirt
‘Cause right now, I’m up in here stunting
I’m at the Goodwill, you can find me in the Uptons
I’m not I'm not stuck on searching in this section
Your grandma, your aunty, your momma, your mammy
I’ll take those flannel zebra jammies, secondhand and rock that motherf***er
The built-in onesie with the socks on that motherf***er
I hit the party and they stop in that motherf***er
They be like “Oh that Gucci, that’s hella tight”
I’m like “Yo, that’s fifty dollars for a t-shirt”
Limited edition, let’s do some simple addition
Fifty dollars for a t-shirt, that’s just some ignorant b**** s***
I call that getting swindled and pimped, s***
I call that getting tricked by a business, that shirt’s hella dough
And having the same one as six other people in this club is a hella don’t
Peep game, come take a look through my telescope
Trying to get girls from a brand? Man, you hella won’t, man, you hella won’t

I’m gonna pop some tags
Only got 20 dollars in my pocket
I-I-I'm huntin' lookin' for a come up
This is f***ing awesome

I'll wear your granddad's clothes
I look incredible
I’m in this big ass coat
from that thrift shop down the road

I wear your granddad's clothes
I look incredible
I’m in this big ass coat
from that thrift shop down the road

I’m gonna pop some tags
Only got 20 dollars in my pocket
I-I-I'm huntin' lookin' for a come up
This is f***ing awesome

Is that your grandma's coat?

There was a time, I used to look into my father's eyes
In a happy home, I was a king I had a gold throne
Those days are gone, now the memories are on the wall
I hear the sounds from the places where I was born

Up on the hill across the blue lake,
thats where I had my first heart break
I still remember how it all changed
my father said

Don't you worry, don't you worry child
See heaven's got a plan for you
Don't you worry, don't you worry now
Yeah!

Don't you worry, don't you worry now
Yeah!
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh!
See heaven's got a plan for you
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh!

There was a time, I met a girl of a different kind
We ruled the world,
Thought I'll never lose her out of sight, we were so young
I think of her now and then
Still hear the song reminding me of when

Up on the hill across the blue lake,
thats where I had my first heart break
I still remember how it all changed
my father said

Don't you worry, don't you worry child
See heaven's got a plan for you
Don't you worry, don't you worry now
Yeah!

Don't you worry, don't you worry child
See heaven's got a plan for you
Don't you worry, don't you worry now
Yeah!

Ooh ooh ooh ooooh!
See heaven's got a plan for you
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh!
Yeah!

Compound, Rockafella
And Ne-Yo's like young Michael, I'm Quincy
Now hear the flow that broke the Da Vinci code
I'm psycho, everything I write go together so nice
Like a wedding make you wanna throw rice

I'm schizo, clock don't tick so
Write sometimes 'til the chicks go noodles
I got screws loose
I pull words out the air like Bluetooth

I'm a sandwich short of a picnic, ignorant
Thoughts come across you've sworn that I written this
But I didn't so maybe
It's good to be crazy, isn't it baby?

I wrote your name on my wall 3000 times last night
You were on my mind
That's what you do to me, that's what you do
That's what you do to me, that's what you

Then one by one I went down the line just repeating it
'Cause it makes me smile
That's what you do to me, that's what you do
That's what you do to me, that's what you

Some say that it's just strange
To act that way but they don't understand
No, they don't get it, you're so magnetic
Though it's pathetic to them I simply turn and say

Just call me crazy
Insane, deranged, it don't matter to me
Call it what you want to, I don't care
And it doesn't make a difference long as she's there

Just call me crazy
Lovin' you is crazy, crazy's what I'll be
Ooh crazy, ooh crazy
Ooh, just call me crazy

Lately it seems like every song I write is about you
Ooh, I love your style
That's what you do to me, that's what you do
That's what you do to me, that's what you

Baby, and it just don't make no sense
How my swagger is crooked if you ain't by my side
That's what you do to me, that's what you do
That's what you do to me, that's what you do

Just call me crazy
Insane, deranged, it don't matter to me
Call it what you want to, I don't care
And it doesn't make a difference long as she's there

Just call me crazy
Lovin' you is crazy, crazy's what I'll be
Ooh crazy, ooh crazy
Ooh, just call me crazy

I talk to your picture
Ooh, I write your name in the mirror
Right after I love you down
I need you so much, can't get enough

Just call me crazy
Insane, deranged, it don't matter to me
Call it what you want to, I don't care
And it doesn't make a difference long as she's there

Just call me crazy
Lovin' you is crazy, crazy's what I'll be
Ooh crazy, ooh crazy
Ooh

Starship myself to an island paradise
Guided by the stars
Given the chance I would leave this place
On a rocket ship for mars

Take away your room back
And your cowboy lies
My refil bottle of sky
'Cos I'm sick and I'm twisted
Like a Sunday massacre
Stop me for I die

If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart
Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart

My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to howl
My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to

Howl, howl
Howl, howl

Now there's no holding back, I'm aching to attack
My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed ground

Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins
I want to find you, tear out all of your tenderness

And howl, howl
Howl, howl

Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters
Hunters, hunters, hunters
Hunters, hunters, hunters
hunters, hunters

The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress
Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed

Ground
And howl

Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters
A man who's pure of heart and says his prayers by night
May still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright

If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed ground

Shawty had them Apple Bottom jeans, jeans
Boots with the fur, with the fur
The whole club was lookin’ at her
She hit the flo’, she hit the flo’
Next thing you know
Shawty got low low low low, low low low low

And the Reeboks with the straps, with the straps
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack, ayy!
She hit the flo’, she hit the flo’

Dem birthday cakes, they stole the show

So sexual, she was flexible
Professional, drinkin’ X and ooo
Hold up wait a minute, do I see what I think I? Whoa

Did I think I seen shorty get low?
Ain't the same when it's up that close
Make it rain, I'm makin' it snow
Work the pole, I got the bank roll

I'm into that, I love women exposed
She threw it back at me, I gave her more
Cash ain't a problem, I know where it goes

She had them Apple Bottom jeans, jeans

Hey, shawty what I gotta do to get you home?
My jeans full of guap
And they ready for Shones
Cadillacs, Maybachs for the sexy grown
Patron on the rocks that'll make you moan

One stack, come on
Two stacks, come on
Three stacks, come on, now that's three grand
What you think, I'm playin’? Baby girl
I'm the man, I'll bend the rubber bands

That's what I told her, her legs on my shoulder
I knew it was over, that Henny and Cola
Got me like a Soldier
She ready for Rover, I couldn't control her
So lucky on me, I was just like a clover

Shorty was hot like a toaster
Sorry but I had to fold her
Like a pornography poster
She showed her

Apple Bottom jeans, jeans
Boots with the fur, with the fur
The whole club was lookin’ at her
She hit the flo’, she hit the flo’

Got her them paper stacks
Tattoo above her crack

Make me want it two in the mornin’

She wouldn't stop, made it drop
Shorty did that pop and lock
Had to break her off that guap
Gyal was fly just like my glock

Apple Bottom jeans, jeans

C'mon

Big man, pig man, ha ha, charade you are, oh
You well heeled big wheel, ha ha, charade you are
And when your hand is on your heart
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost a joker
With your head down in the pig bin
Saying "Keep on diggin'"
Pig stain on your fat chin
What do you hope to find?
There in the pig mine
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry

Bus stop rat bag, ha ha, charade you are
You f***ed up old hag, ha ha, charade you are
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost worth a quick grin
You like the feel of steel
You're hot stuff with a hat pin
And good fun with a hand gun
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry

Hey you White House, ha ha, charade you are
You house proud town mouse, ha ha, charade you are
You're trying to keep our feelings off the street
You're nearly a real treat
All tight lips and cold feet
I know you feel abused
You gotta stem the evil tide
And keep it all on the inside
Mary you're nearly a treat
Mary you're nearly a treat
But you're really a cry

Well I woke up to the sound of silence
The cars were cutting like knives in a fist fight
And I found you with a bottle of wine
Your head in the curtains
And heart like the fourth of July

You swore and said
We are not
We are not shining stars
This I know
I never said we are

Though I've never been through hell like that
I've closed enough windows
To know you can never look back

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Carry on, carry on

So I met up with some friends
At the edge of the night
At a bar off 75
And we talked and talked
About how our parents will die

All our neighbours and wives
But I like to think
I can cheat it all
To make up for the times I've been cheated on

And it's nice to know
When I was left for dead
I was found and now I don't roam these streets
I am not the ghost you want of me

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Whoa
My head is on fire
But my legs are fine
'Cause after all they are mine
Lay your clothes down on the floor

Close the door
Hold the phone
Show me how
No one's ever gonna stop us now

'Cause we are
We are shining stars
We are invincible
We are who we are

On our darkest day
When we're miles away
So we'll come
We will find our way home

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Carry on, carry on

Summer after high school, when we first met
We make-out in your Mustang to And on my 18th birthday, we got matching tattoos

Used to steal your parents liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

In another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

I was No one without the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, woah

Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown, singing the blues
It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your
But in another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

The one, the one, the one
The one that got away

All this money can't buy me a time machine, no
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
I should'a told you what you meant to me, woah
'Cause now I pay the price

In another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away

The one (the one), the one (the one), the one (the one)

In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got away
