Crybaby's Extra Clutter

Play Date (Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
You call me on the telephone, you feel so far away
You tell me to come over, there's some games you wanna play
I'm walking to your house, nobody's home
Just me and you and you and me alone

[Pre-Chorus]
We're just playing hide and seek
It's getting hard to breathe under the sheets with you
I don't want to play no games
I'm tired of always chasing, chasing after you

[Chorus]
I don't give a fuck about you anyways
Who ever said I give a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess I'm just a play date to you

[Verse 2]
Wake up in your bedroom and there's nothing left to say
When I try to talk, you're always playing board games
I wish I had monopoly over your mind
I wish I didn't care all the time

[Pre-Chorus]
We're just playing hide and seek
It's getting hard to breathe under the sheets with you
I don't want to play no games
I'm tired of always chasing, chasing after you

[Chorus]
I don't give a fuck about you anyways
Who ever said I give a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess I'm just a play date to you

[Bridge]
Ring around the rosie
I never know, I never know what you need
Ring around the rosie
I want to give you, want to give you what you need

[Chorus]
I don't give a fuck about you anyways
Who ever said I give a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess I'm just a play date to you

[Outro]
You know I give a fuck about you everyday
Guess it's time that I tell you the truth
If I share my toys, will you let me stay?
Don't want to leave this play date with you

Teddy Bear (Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
Stitched you up, put you together
With cotton and feather
Gave you love, put my heart inside you
Oh what could I do?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When you started talking in your sleep
Saying things you'd do to me
I didn't care, I wasn't scared
Now I'm finding knives under the sheets
Crumpled photographs of me
I'm in despair, should I be scared?

[Chorus]
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
You were comforting and quiet
How did love become so violent?
Oh, teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
Everything was so sweet until you tried to kill me

[Verse 2]
I threw you out, I didn't outgrow you
I just didn't know you
But now you're back
It's so terrifying how you paralyze me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now you're showing up inside my home
Breathing deep into the phone
I'm so unprepared
I'm fucking scared

[Chorus]
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
You were comforting and quiet
How did love become so violent?
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
Everything was so sweet until you tried to kill me

[Bridge]
I'm fucking scared

[Chorus]
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
You were comforting and quiet
How did love become so violent?
Teddy bear, you were my teddy bear
Everything was so sweet until you tried to kill me

Cake (Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
Your skin is warm like an oven, your kiss is sugary sweet
Your fingers feel like cotton when you put your arms around me
I feel like I'm just missing something whenever you leave
We've got all the ingredients except you loving me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And respectfully

[Chorus]
I'm not a piece of cake for you to just discard
While you walk away with the frosting of my heart
So I'm taking back what's mine, you'll miss
The slice of heaven that I gave to you last night

[Verse 2]
You smell just like vanilla, you taste like buttercream
You're filling up my senses with empty calories
I feel like I'm just missing something whenever you leave
You've got all the ingredients except you needing me

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So respectfully

[Chorus]
I'm not a piece of cake for you to just discard
While you walk away with the frosting of my heart
So I'm taking back what's mine, you'll miss
The slice of heaven that I gave to you last night

[Bridge]
If I am just a piece of cake
I am just a piece of cake (cake)
Then, you're just a piece of meat
You're just a piece of meat to me
If I am just a piece of cake
I am just a piece of cake (cake)
Then, you're just a piece of meat
You're just a piece of meat to me

[Chorus]
I'm not a piece of cake for you to just discard
While you walk away with the frosting of my heart
So I'm taking back what's mine, you'll miss
The slice of heaven that I gave to you last night
The slice of heaven that I gave
The slice of heaven that I gave to you
The slice of heaven that I gave to you last night

Gingerbread Man (Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
I'm frosting, I don't need a man to make my life sweet
Prince Charming just isn't the one that I think I need
You're thirsty, you think I give out all my shit for free
I'm bursting out laughing at idiocy

[Chorus]
I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed
The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat
One who's always crazy, never calls me baby
That's the one that I want
All you boys are not him, not him

[Verse 2]
Can't you see? I only want the ones who never see me
But I'm happy, I love playing these games until my heart bleeds
It bleeds jelly 'cause you don't want someone to eat your cookie
Can someone please find him for me, find him for me?

[Chorus]
I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed
The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat
One who's always crazy, never calls me baby
That's the one that I want
All you boys are not him, not him

[Bridge]
I'm the icing covering his body
I wanna hold him so close, so tightly
Baby how do I say this politely?
Love me hard and don't be nice, please
I wanna feel your crumbs on my body
I want to break you in pieces, fight me
Baby don't be so scared of biting
Want to eat each other into nothing

[Chorus]
I need a gingerbread man, the one I'll feed
The gingerbread man, the one I'll eat
One who's always crazy, never calls me baby
That's the one that I want
All you boys are not him, not him
