"Baby" lyrics
Atmosphere, Slug & Ant Lyrics
Man, hold up
Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got something to say to me
Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryin' to get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me, baby
You reproduce all of the things you consume
She says my mood could suffocate the whole room
Which rooms? Not this one here
Because this one here is full of atmosph-, hold up
She got a point, she scores a lotta points
We both stay poised and prepared to prove buoyancy
How you hopin' to be holier than me?
My face glows from my laptop screen, I'm writin' poetry
Draw some X's over the parts you reject
Whether it doesn't connect, or if it's just incorrect
Don't be, don't be, don't be indirect, I don't mean to disrespect it's with the best
Intention that I mention I'm the engine of this train wreck
You tryin' to say somethin', but wait a sec
I wasn't done yet, you interrupt before I take a breath
No, I'ma hijack this argument and crash the pity party
Huh, you right, baby, let me tell you, I'm sorry, it's just that
Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got something to say to me
Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryin' to get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me, baby
Let's try to keep it real like a cliché
I'm not okay with that he say, she say
There's no way to bring it back like a DJ
So keep pushin' each other's buttons like bad DJs
I've heard a lot of words to describe me as the culprit
And most of it was probably legit
Justifiably, I flinch when it hits, does it stick?
Are you convinced? I'm conflicted, I ain't tryna plead the fifth
Yes, of course, I says I plead guilty
I'm the source of the stress
I guess I should be grateful that I'm blessed
To have a place at your table as a guest
In my defense, I'm not embarrassed to admit that I'm a filthy mess
And basically, I feel you're amazing
I know I'm not easy to deal with, ain't no need for explainin'
I clearly recognize the bravery and love that you gave to me
But it don't give you the agency to treat me like a baby, baby
Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got something to say to me
Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryin' to get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me like a ukulele, baby
Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got something to say to me
Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryin' to get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me, baby
You reproduce all of the things you consume
