They say you're such a great guy
You're one of the best
They cannot understand why
I always protest
Why I avoid your helping hands
Every time they take hold
Because of their demands
Giving more than what was sold
They put you on a throne
While you put on a show
A king in your zone
Knowing they don't know
Your charm is evident
Your tongue a whip of sharp wit
But to my detriment
They can't see how you're split
Because though you shower me with good
And you dote on my shell
They have never stood where I stood
They have never walked through your hell
They say you're such a great guy
You're one of the best
They cannot understand why
I always protest
Because they don't know how it is
What it's like sleeping in your bed
How there's poison within your kiss
How you used my body to mess with my head
They say you're such a great guy
You're one of the best
They cannot understand why
I always protest
Because they cannot see
How your sours are disguised as sweets
How you save it for me
When we're in between the sheets
