Forest Whitaker Lyrics - Singles - Bad Books

We started a fire; 

That was never supposed to burn out. 

You started a band; 

That was cool for a while but it turned pretty bland. 

I started a fight; 

With the neighbor next door 

And his pesky wife. 

You started a job; 

That you hate when you're sober 

And hate even more when you're not 

I know you hate me too, 

Always say you do 

And you moved to Japan; 

Thought a clean bill of health and a camera 

Could show you the plan. 

I bought a bird that repeats what i say, 

But "I'm lonely" is all that he's heard. 

You found a guy, 

That is clearly the opposite me 

With a black motorbike 

I digged around, 

But it's just like a movie that's picture 

Is off with the sound 

I know you hate me too 

You always say you do 

And you started to write 

It was subtle at first 

But the danger was clearly in sight 

I don't reply 

Due to a lack of an ego 

And laziness cuts like a knife 

You say that you're good 

Had a baby with biker 

And named him Forest Whitaker 

I'm laying low 

On the probable chance 

You convince me to give him a home 

I know you hate me too 

You always say you do 

And I know you that hate me too 

Always say you do.
