lyrics
Ben Black:
I'm reminded of you every time I walk into a room,
And I know you're in the joint 'cause I can smell your perfume,
That's when it all comes flooding back,
And then I see you with another chap and think "damn I wish I had some of that"
'Cause we were good together, weren't we?
All the times I took you back even when you burnt me,
And who forgave you every single time you stitched him up?
And every time you ran out, who came and picked you up?
I couldn't leave you alone, sneaking you home,
Even though Mum would have freaked out she would have known.
I knew we probably shouldn't roll together,
But I let you in my life, and then you took your hold, forever.
(And that’s not nature’s way, I can’t break away,
I stay awake making beats eating takeaway.)
(And that’s not nature’s way, I can’t break away,
I stay awake making beats eating takeaway.)
And that's not Nature's Way, but I kept taking you back,
And kept you close when I was making a track.
You said you'd help me with the lyrics, you'd help me with the beats
And when I needed a break, I'd wrap you up between the sheets,
And we'd make sweet love, well it was kinda bittersweet,
Hard to function the next day without a bit of sleep.
When I was due to do that Jazzy Jeff interview,
I said I had the flu cause I wanted to stay in with you.
Yeah, I could have met a legend in the flesh
But instead I vegetated as you rested on my chest
At the time I felt blessed, back looking back,
You were the one bad seed that got the best of Ben Black.
(And that’s not nature’s way, I can’t break away,
I stay awake making beats eating takeaway.)
(And that’s not nature’s way, I can’t break away,
I stay awake making beats eating takeaway.)
(And that's not nature's way)
(Making beats)
(I can't break)
(Eating takeaway)
I remember it with clarity, the moment that reality snapped,
Blacking out, having panic attacks,
And it took a couple years to get my sanity back,
Can't believe you had me nutty as a granary bap.
Shit, why do think I was acting that paro,
And slurring my words like Captain Jack Sparrow
But sometimes I lay awake and think about you,
I miss you, even though I’m better off without you,
I wish you. Would come back so we could kick back,
Spark up the old flame, maybe I could hit that,
One more time, just for old time’s sake,
I can’t believe I’m still in love with my biggest mistake.
