You Really Blew It

from Amateur Dramatics (EP) by The Photocopies

lyrics

Yeah, all I needed was a decent excuse
A good reason for me to break up with you
And now you bring it to me
The merest hint of infidelity
I heard you talking in your sleep last night
Somebody else there in your dream
Oh, fine
That's how you want it to be
Don't say my mind was playing tricks on me

You really blew it
You really blew it with me
I always knew it
You weren’t the one for me
There’s somebody else you want to get alone
I’ve all the evidence recorded on my phone
You really blew it
You really blew it with me
You think I’m stupid
I heard your sordid fantasy
I’ll be the injured party here even though
I didn’t really want to stay anyway
Oh no

I might pretend to be really appalled
Might even tell you it doesn't surprise me at all
Yeah, whatever it takes
Because I really want to put the brakes on us
Maybe it's mean, am I a coward now?
Well, possibly, but I just don't know how
I'd end it out of the blue
That's why I'm gonna have to say to you

You really blew it
You really blew it with me
I always knew it
You weren’t the one for me
There’s somebody else you want to get alone
I’ve all the evidence recorded on my phone
You really blew it
You really blew it with me
You think I’m stupid
I heard your sordid fantasy
I’ll be the injured party here even though
I didn’t really want to stay anyway
Oh no

What kind of person really does this?
I don't know
I'll feel guilty for maybe a day or so
A lousy way to let anybody go
Oh oh oh oh

You really blew it
You really blew it with me
I always knew it
You weren’t the one for me
There’s somebody else you want to get alone
I’ve all the evidence recorded on my phone
You really blew it
You really blew it with me
You think I’m stupid
I heard your sordid fantasy
I’ll be the injured party here even though
I didn’t really want to stay anyway
Oh no
