Set Em Up - Langhorne Slim

Well I tried hard to explain

Love you don’t understand

You just say «it's on me»

Well I know things don’t turn out as planned

Love is hardly what lust was in old company

Don’t cry mama

You make love and it ain’t your folks fault

You speak of friends but what’s that cost?

And all you do is spend, I’m disappointed in the end

I set em up and knock em down again

Give my regards to your pop

He’s the best thing you got

Why don’t you go on home to him?

And it’s alright to sleep alone

Not pick up your phone

You’re like a fish without fins

How can you breathe babe?

You make love and speak only when it’s time

And I was full when yours became mine

What did you do today when all your family has blown away?

You’re doing it all but you’re doing it in my way
