LATELY
Lately i've been feeling
a little bit neglected.
when it comes to your ex-boyfriends,
well, i guess i'm overprotective.
but it's nothing personal
i just wanted you to tell me that you
care.
Lately i've been thinking 'bout
stickin' my hand in a toaster.
i never asked to take a ride
on this emotional roller-coaster.
it's you that i want,
and lately it feels like you're not there.
Lately i've been contemplating
jumping in the ocean.
sometimes even spock would show
a little more emotion!
do you still love me now
as much as you loved me yesterday?
(chorus)
i try to let it out...
i bitch, cry, moan, whine, scream and
shout today,
but the wall wouldn't listen to me!
why wouldn't it listen to me?
i'm sick of always cryin'
i don't wanna be sick of trying,
but you've gotta want me too.
Lately i've been hoping for
a little bit of affection.
sometimes i wish that you had came
with your own set of directions.
i guess it's not that easy,
but i hope that you still love me anyway.
Lately i've been thinkin' 'bout
takin' a vow of silence,
i've never seen a monk result
in any acts of violence.
or, maybe i'll just cry
and hope you come around again today.
(repeat chorus)
