I Don't Like You Either

After you took my heart and sautéed it in pepper
After you threw me away like I was a leper
After you made it clear you won't be near in fair or stormy weather
I understand, I get the point...

After you told all your friends that I brought you shame
After you threw all of my books out
of the house in the yard, in the rain
After you kicked me out and said, you didn't want me there
I understand, I get the point and now I don't like you either

And there are still some people who think you're fantastic
The grocery store still lets you choose between paper or plastic
The cordial indifference of the world, I guess, will always be
But it would be nice if everyone felt the same way about you as me

Drivers still yield to you when you've got the right of way
You still can enjoy the golds and the reds of a sunset over the bay
But when you go to buy something pricey
and the man says your credit's denied there
I'll understand the man, see, cause I don't like you either

And there are still some people who think you're fantastic
The grocery store still lets you choose between paper or plastic
The cordial indifference of the world, I guess, will always be
But it would be nice if everyone felt the same way about you as me

You still birthday cards from your mother
You still get phone calls from your brother
But when that friendly policeman pulls you
over cause he says, your speed was too high there
I'll understand the man cause I don't like you either

And there are still some people who think you're fantastic
The grocery store still lets you choose between paper or plastic
The cordial indifference of the world, I guess, will always be
But it would be nice if everyone felt the same way about you as me
