lyrics
SINCE SHE BROKE MY HEART
Used to have a woman
Used to hold her tight
Tried to treat her good
Used to say “We’ll make it!
We can work it out,”
Because I thought we could
It doesn’t make any sense
Doesn’t make any sense
No no no no
Used to wake at 7:00
Used to shave my face
Used to eat three meals
Then she threw me out
Took all my shit
You know how that feels?
It doesn’t make any sense
Doesn’t make any sense
No no no no
Does every cat say woof woof woof?
Does every dog say meow?
Oh what the hell
Oh what the hell
Am I supposed to do right now
Since she broke my heart?
Ain’t got no grace
Ain’t got no tact
Ain’t got no spine
Gonna throw me out
From my own damn house
And she thinks that’s fine?
It doesn’t make any sense
Doesn’t make any sense
No no no no
And every bee says tweet tweet tweet
Oh every bird says buzz
And it’s all because
It’s all because
It’s all because
It’s all because
She broke my heart!
Used to have a father
Used to have a cat
Used to have a bed
I’m 30 years old today
And I’m getting divorced
And my therapist is dead
I can’t take anymore
Can’t take anymore
No no no no
Does she hear me when I cry?
When I moan at night?
I’m within in those walls
I’m behind those blinds
I sleep on that shelf
I lounge on those plates
I piss in that fridge
I live in that soul
And she broke my heart!
Goddamn!

Hands-down one of the most incredible hip hop albums I've ever heard. The story, the production, it's all amazing and a harrowing and fascinating musical journey. Julian O.
