You've got a nerve to be asking a favor You've got a nerve to be calling my number I know we've been through this before Can't you hear me, I'm calling out your name? Can't you see me, I'm pounding on your door?
You've got a nerve to be asking a favor You've got a nerve to be calling my number Can't you hear me, I'm bleeding on the wall? Can't you see me, I'm pounding on your door?
Can't you hear me when I'm calling out your name?
When I used to go out, I would know everyone that I saw Now I go out alone if I go out at all
When I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw Now I go out alone if I go out at all
When I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw Now I go out alone if I go out at all
You've got a nerve to be asking a favor You've got a nerve to be calling my number I'm sure we've been through this before Can't you hear me, I'm beating on your wall? Cant you see me, I'm pounding on your door?
Don't be a snitch!
WOO HOO dez da awesomest da rat yeah huh!
