Mahalia Hide Out

Tekst piosenki

[Intro]
Can anyone live with Eartha Kitt?
That’s not for me to decide
That’s for someone who decides to live with me to decide
Not for me
But are you willing to compromise within a relationship?
To compromise? What is compromising?
Compromising for what?
Compromising for what reason?

[Verse 1]
You don’t have to call me, you don’t gotta say it
I already guessed, love
You been playin’
I don’t need to know where you are now
I don’t see no reason for a blowout
I was here the whole time, you were busy chasing
You don’t know what you had, I’m amazing

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I was all in and you was all out
I’ll get back up after this fall-down
Look me in my eyes and tell me you never loved me, yeah
Babe, it’s no surprise, if I was you I’d feel lucky, uh, uh

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, you striked out
All the times, thought that I didn’t know ’bout
All the lies you denied, but I know now
'Bout your hideout
I can’t believe you thought I’d never find out, ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! A man comes into my life and I have to compromise?
You said all these things
You must think about that one again

[Verse 2]
I ignored the rumours, there’s my lesson
Clearly I’m the humour, and you been messin’
Always talkin’ ’bout the future when you not even present
Well, I’m the prize, uh, I’m the blessing
I was cool to slow down, you were busy racing
Had it all figured out, you knew I’d cave in

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I was all in and you was all out
I’ll come back up after this comedown
Look me in my face and tell me this ain’t bravado, hey
I let you set the pace, all I did was just follow, yeah, yeah

[Chorus 2]
Well, you striked out
All the likes, thought that I didn’t know ’bout
All the times you denied, but I know now
'Bout your hideout
Well, I can’t believe you thought I’d never find out, no

[Outro]
I think, if you were to think about it in terms of analyzing…
You said all these things, ha-ha
Yes…I’ll fall in love with myself and I want someone to share it with me
La, la, la, la-la-la-la
I can’t believe you thought I’d never find out
About your hideout, uh
