You Sent Me Flying / Cherry

[00:02.15] Lent you Outsidaz and my new Badu
[00:11.56] While you were thinking I didn't have a clue
[00:21.41] Tough to sort files
[00:25.76] With your voice in my head
[00:30.65] So then I bribed you downstairs with a Marlboro Red, uh
[00:39.23] And now I feel so small discovering you knew
[00:44.29] How much more torture would you have put me through?
[00:48.94] You probably saw me laughing at all your jokes
[00:53.69] Or how I did not mind when you stole all my smokes, yeah
[00:59.52] And although my pride, yeah, it's not easy to disturb, yeah
[01:09.35] You sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
[01:18.98] With your battered jeans and your Beastie's tee
[01:28.15] Now I can't work like this, no, no, with you next to me
[01:38.13] And although he's nothing
[01:42.83] In the scheme of my years
[01:47.78] It just serves to bludgeon my futile tears
[01:57.25] And I'm not use to this, no, no
[02:01.15] I observe, yeah, I don't chase
[02:06.17] But now I sit with consequences, thrust in my face, yeah
[02:14.92] And the melodramas of my day deliver blows
[02:19.62] And that surpass your rejection, it just goes to show
[02:24.81] A simple attraction that reflects right back to me
[02:29.35] So I'm not as into you as I appear to be, yeah
[02:35.66] And although my pride, yeah, is not easily disturbed, yeah, yeah
[02:45.62] You sent me flying when you kick-kicked me to the curb
[02:54.82] With your battered jeans, yeah, and your Beastie's tee, yeah, yeah
[03:04.43] Now I can't work like this, no, with you next to me
[03:13.82] His message was brutal
[03:18.68] But the delivery was kind
[03:23.12] Maybe if I get this down, I'll get it off my mind, yeah
[03:30.57]
[03:32.63] Oh, it serves to condition me and smoothed my kinks, yeah
[03:42.63] Despite my frustration for the way that he thinks
[03:50.78] And I knew the truth, when it came, would be to that effect
[03:56.15] At least you're attracted to me which I did not expect
[04:00.99] Didn't think you get my number down and such
[04:05.34] But I've never hated myself for my age so much, yeah
[04:11.50] And although my pride, yeah, is not easy to disturb, yeah
[04:21.17] You sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
[04:30.78] So with your battered jeans and your Beastie's tee
[04:40.08] Now I can't work like this, no, no, with you next to me, yeah
[04:49.80] And although my pride, yeah, is not easy to disturb, yeah
[04:58.83] You sent me flying, yeah, when you kicked me to the curb
[05:08.97] So with your battered jeans and your Beastie's tee
[05:18.46] Her name is Cherry
[05:21.56] We've just met
[05:24.22] But already she knows me better than you
[05:29.64] She understands me
[05:32.23] After 18 years
[05:35.47] And you still don't see me like you ought to do
[05:41.21] Maybe we could talk 'bout things
[05:43.86] If you was made of wood and strings
[05:46.88] While I love her every sound
[05:49.24] I dunno how to tune you down
[05:52.30] And you're so thick and my patience's thin
[05:55.15] So I got me a new best friend
[05:57.77] With a pickup that puts you to shame
[06:00.52] And Cherry is her name
[06:03.19] And when I'm lonely
[06:06.27] Cherry's there
[06:08.99] And she plays along while I sing out my blues
[06:14.42] I could be crying
[06:17.41] And you don't care
[06:20.13] You won't call me back, you're stubborn as mule
[06:25.79] Maybe we could talk 'bout things
[06:31.06] If you was made of wood and strings
[06:37.13] You might think I've gone too far
[06:42.33] I'm talking 'bout my new guitar
[06:48.66]
