i think it was yesterday
or maybe the day before
you know when you pushed me out
said you don't love me anymore
well, i got to thinking about those other times
all those things you've said and just when it was
your words lost their meaning
man, its been a long time
... so long i forget
like all those times you said
you couldn't live without me...
then i started wondering
why you aren't dead yet?
so i sat there drinking coffee
smoking cigarettes
answered my phone when i felt it vibrate
saw my homeboys laughing
they was making bets
knew you'd call again all upset
and damn it!
it was so true!
now i'm feeling kinda lazy
probably get to work late
but before I go gottal set you straight
i'm sick of you!
