I Know Something You Did - The Streets, Jesse James Solomon

I know something you did but I can’t say it out

Because of, let’s say, how I found out

Taste the frickin' lesson like the apple from the doctor

It’s a wasted incident but they take the Michael, ooh

Some people’s only taste of actual success

Is when they take a bite from you

You hold on to feelings and don’t let them go

It’ll do you no favours, it’s doing you wrong

Why are you obsessed with the debt that I owe you?

I’ve owed you for ages, move on

I know something you did but I can’t say it out

Because of, let’s say, how I found out

Your optimism half full, your pessimism half empty

But I wonder why the glass is bigger than it was meant to be

Pacing in the living room, maybe course by cunch

Wake in the middle of the evening, face falling in my lunch

Laptop running YouTube over

We used to go there but do we go now

At the little screen on a shitty bed now, you pity me or you dream instead

I know something you did but I can’t say it out

Because of, let’s say, how I found out

I know something you did, but I can’t say shit

'Cause you’ll trace it and start tripping over you laces

Though the grape vine, I made this

Red wine for your tasting, I thought I knew what your taste was

But you’re tasteless

As the flame dimmed and the moon shone on the painting

You was waiting up late for a pagan

Brazen, it’s brazy, I’m not shaken, my head aching

I’m just tired, I play you like the PlayStation

But when you play me, it ain’t nice

I just bake off, I ain’t said shit 'cause if I say shit then it’s

I know something you did but I can’t say it out

Because of, let’s say, how I found out

Lock the backdoor, fuck is that for?

The sun is not gone

Kicking shoes off up the stairs

It’s awkward so you force a stare

Tights off in a game of two

Cock the hammer

Feels something like a board game, socks and ladders

Woke up when the night was leaving the morning, lying on my bed

Like a drawing of a spiral staircase that falls and falls and finds no end

Spoken lightly so you might not hear me

I woke up when the night was leaving

I know something you did but I can’t say it out

Because of, let’s say, how I found out

I know something you did but I can’t say it out

Because of, let’s say, how I found out
