lyrics

Oil & Water

They say that you’re no good for me
Trouble from the start
Throw yer love around like breadcrumbs
Leave a trail of broken hearts

I know that you are not my type
& that’s a good thing
Cuz my type kinda bugs me
I’m tired of the static cling

We go together like oil & water
Just gotta shake it up
&if we settle down that’s when we separate
I sink to the bottom & you’re back on top

I’m not in it for the outcome
Cuz we don’t have a chance
But I’m not looking for a smooth ride
I want some turbulance

We go together like oil & water
Just gotta shake it up
&if we settle down that’s when we separate
I sink to the bottom & you’re back on top

Infatuated, crushed & smitten
Who wrote the book of love & where is it written
That you should shy away once bitten
Why is the sweetest always forbidden

I should have seen it coming
This one’s going to hurt
But I might as well enjoy the ride
Before I hit the dirt

So I brush it off & crawl away
Into the sunset you ride
& I’ll live to love another one who is not my type

We go together like oil & water
Just gotta shake it up
&if we settle down that’s when we separate
I sink to the bottom & you’re back on top
