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

I Know Something You Did

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
