"Double Shift" lyrics

"Double Shift"

I don't think your girlfriend gets off
I think she's lying to you
Every night when you come home
After you've lied to her about
Lying with me
And I don't want to insult you but
You got a lot of nerve
Coming over to my place and saying
That I'm like no one you've ever met before
And it's a bad thing

And I tell myself each time
Maybe you've changed
Maybe you've changed
Maybe you've changed
And every single time
Every single time
You never change

I don't think your girlfriend gets off
I think she's tired of you
Coming home late every night
After you've worked your double shift involving me
And I don't jump to conclusions much
But too much time has passed
For me to think that I'm something

And I tell myself each time
Maybe I'll change
Maybe I'll change
Maybe I'll change
And every single time
I never change
I never change
I never change
I tell myself each time
I've gotta change
I gotta change
I gotta change
I swear to God this time
I'm gonna change

Same house
Same bed
New hair
New name
Same talkin' to myself
Convinced that I'm okay
Same jobs
Same friends
Who knew too late
Same getting so involved
And then taking it away
Same eyes
Same breath
New skin
New age
Same I'm not gonna do it
And then do it anyway
Same drugs
Same script
Same sex
Same shame
Same shit my mother did
When I was in the 7th grade

Ooh, don't you think by now maybe one of us would change
Ooh, don't you think by now maybe one of us would change
Ooh, don't you think by now maybe one of us would change
Maybe one of us should change

And I don't think your girlfriend gets off
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change
