Cannibal Ox

Its like, I care about you, I think about you all the time
its like, we friends and shit?
which means we treat each other right
youll be there for me when you gonna be there for me
[Verse 1: Vast Aire Kramer]
yo it wasnt even like that
I wanted my cardiovascular to fight back
cupid had me runnin circles blindfolded
in the daytime with a flashlight looking for her
yo, sit back, relax and smell the roses
a fly girl by any other name would still be that
but the trick is to see that
Im caught in between futures fantasies and memories I played back
told my man I started sword fighting
cause fencing was similar to tongue kissing
if you wait too long you gonna end up confessin
all I think about is you undressin
I extended my thoughts in a relationship
but they sunk like the titanic relation-ships
she was in a love triangle
but it wasnt like my feelings werent there to make it a square
pennys for her thoughts
shes my very own American Beauty, red petals when we talk
...the f word
[Chorus 1: Vordul Megalon]
She like music, got me heavily booted(?)
when Im out with her feelings be mixin
chemical elixirs, caught her like a sickness
and cant get rid of it, these sexual addictions
[Chorus 2: Vordul]
tangle witted in my opposite sex friendships
with too many emotions, got me bent up
and its real ill when something going on
but nothings being said trying to figure it out
wrapped all in your head just spit it out and Ill
truly understand what the problem is
cause you got me twisted tryin to stress birds
kickin that f word
fuckin around, flirtin and stressin my nerves
[Verse 2: Vast]
check this situation, I wore my lust like cologne
she called it Obsession
the backgrounds black and white and we adolescents
like what the fuck we know about love?
the more I learn its like the Clash of the Titans
all I wanna do is avoid fightin
a little arguings okay but not everyday
and if we cant communicate what we got decays
until the smell gets more pungent
to the point where we cant be seen in public
body parts fallin apart, a symbol of what things do
or better yet, a symbol of what friends do, they die
and together forever just sounds fly
thats how it sounded to me when I heard it
and slow motion was her lips as she worded
the f word
"dont take it personal, I like you a lot but I dont wanna lose what we got"
but what we got now is friction
she tellin me intimacy and friendship she aint mixin
the f word
[Chorus 1]
[Verse 3: Vast]
yo, you burnin the candle at both ends
Im supposed to be the friend, Im gettin fried in the end
the big bang theory, what is this a trend?
you ask a girl out and the universe extends
tell me to talk to the hand again and Ill read your palm
Im smellin your shit now, dont know how to call
all I wanted was grounds for understanding
I aint greedy, but to hold your heart I gotta put my hand in, why debate?
you think you can fit me in that anorexic space between love and hate?
I got all of the first one and none of the other
and thats something I learned from my sister and my mother
thought we was close in the genesis before all this
technology was cordless, a senseless courtship
this is more than just a song and when hes treating you wrong
Im more than just a shoulder to cry on
the F word
[Chorus 1 & 2]
