Messy
You know I'm impatient
So why would you leave me waiting outside the station
When it was, like, minus four degrees? and I
I get what you're saying
I just really don't wanna hear it right now
Can you shut up for, like, once in your life?
Listen to me, I took your nice words of advice
About how you think I'm gonna die lucky if I turned 33
Okay, so yeah, I smoke like a chimney
I'm not skinny, and I pull a Britney every other week
But cut me some slack, who do you want me to be?
'Cause I'm too messy, and then I'm just too damn clean
You told me, "Get a job," then you ask where the hell I've been
And I'm too perfect 'til I open my big mouth
I want to be me, is that not allowed?
And I'm too clever, and then I'm too stupid, dumb
You hate it when I cry unless it's that time of the month
And I'm too perfect 'til I show you that I'm not
A thousand people I could be for you, and you hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
Hey, hey
It's taking you ages
You still don't get the hint, I'm not asking for pages
But one text or two would be nice, and
Please, don't pull those faces
When I've been out working, like, every day
It's just one bottle of wine or two
But, hey, you can't even talk
You smoke trees just to help you sleep
Then why you out getting stoned at four o'clock?
And then you come home to me
And don't say hello 'cause I got high again
And forgot to fold my clothes
'Cause I'm too messy, and then I'm just too damn clean
You told me, "Get a job," then you ask where the hell I've been
And I'm too perfect 'til I open my big mouth
I want to be me, is that not allowed?
And I'm too clever, and then I'm too stupid, dumb
You hate it when I cry unless it's that time of the month
And I'm too perfect 'til I show you that I'm not
A thousand people I could be for you, and you hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
Oh, oh, oh
And I'm too messy, and then I'm just too damn clean
You told me, "Get a job," then you ask where the hell I've been
And I'm too perfect 'til I open my big mouth
I want to be me, is that not allowed?
And I'm too clever, and then I'm too stupid, dumb
You hate it when I cry unless it's that time of the month
And I'm too perfect 'til I show you that I'm not
A thousand people I could be for you, and you hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
So why would you leave me waiting outside the station

You hate the whole damn lot
You hate the whole damn lot
