Amy Winehouse - You know i'm not good
_______________(original) lyrics__________________
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves and your skull t-shirt
You say what did you do with him today?
And sniff me out like I was Tanqueray
Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You're ten men down like Roger Moore
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
Upstairs in bed, with my ex boy
He's in the place, but I can't get joy
Thinking of you in the final throes, this is when my buzzer goes
Run out to meet you, chips and bitter
You say we'll marry 'cause you're not bitter
There'll be none of him no more
I cried for you on the kitchen floor
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain
We're like how we were again
I'm in the tub you on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet
Then you notice little carpet burn
My stomach drop yeah and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
You truly stuck the knife in first
I cheated myself like I knew I would
I told ya I was trouble, you know that I'm no good
I cheated myself, lke I knew I would
I told ya I was trouble, you know that I'm no good
[amy winehouse]
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
your rolled up sleeves and your skull t-shirt
You say why did you do it with him today?
and sniff me out like I was tangueray
[ghostface killah]
why you actin' like youre more trouble than toney starks'n
you need to just walk away like kelly clarkson
I know. we were free to sleep around town
but I figured you said that cuz how I get down
now of course, you were out there messin' around
I would've told you
once you ghost you never go back
try gee'n me like I dont know how to mack
I'm a don and
top of the line I stay fly and
stop tryin'
to keep coverin' the lies and
using my credit cards to buy diamonds
we need to straighten this out
get to the bottom of it all
lets go before we start the war
begin with two reasons why we need to talk
and stop poppin up in my cribs all over new york and
death stalkin'
you such trouble and no good
them fightin' words in my block and we in the hood
[amy winehouse]
I cheated myself
like I knew I would
I told ya, I was troubled
you know that im no good
[ghostface killah]
You had to be a nasty girl and try to play me
Play me, play me, play me...
nasty girl, nasty girl, nasty girl
yeah, yo, yo
a-yo I knew you was trouble when I first layed eyes on you
temperature so hot the heat just rise with you
lemmee ride with you, talk about your mistakes
you cheated yourself but these are the breaks
and it'll never be the same again cause of old boy
but oh boy,
together we make so much joy
in the sands'n oh what a web we weave
but you played me so I had to roll up my sleeves
and hunt you down holding the next man's stacks
now you sorry and trying to bring that old thing back
act like we can rekindle that flame
It's a shame
how you cant get me off the brain
he that lame
you love how I bring the pain
got them rug burns stinging and you saying my name
say my name, uh
thats right im high post
Get the champagne love, word up we gonna toast
He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black
We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....
I go back to us
I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
Black, black, black, black, black, black, black,
I go back to
I go back to
We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred tïmes
You go back to her
And I go back to black
Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
Will you love me tomorrow?
Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sighs?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Tonight with words unspoken
And you say that I'm the only one, the only one, yeah
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning star?
I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now, cause I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Yeah...
To know know know him
Is to love love love him
Just to see that smile
Makes my life worthwhile
To know know know him
Is to love love love him
And I do, and I do, and I do
Oh, I'll be good to him
I'll bring joy to him
Everyone says there'll come a day
When I'll walk alongside of him
To know know know him
Is to love love love him
And I do, I really do, and I do
Why can't he see
How blind can he be
Someday he'll see
That he was meant for me
To know know know him
Is to love love love him
Just to see that smile
Makes my life worthwhile
To know know know him
Is to love love love him
And I do, I really do, and I do
Got Back Together With My Man Last Night
But I Think I Was Dreaming He Didnt Feel Quite Right
I Pressed His Chest Under My Fingertips
Beside Myself I Sighed And Reminded Of His Lips
Im Confused And Quizical
Funny Dontcha Know

Let Me Tell Ya How
Do Me Good Ill Tell You Anything You Want To Hear
Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good
Do Me Good And All This Craziness Will Disappear
Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good
Its Like He Was Designed With Me In Mind
Hes So Good From Behind
Hes Beautifully Defined
I Miss Him Most Of All When It Got Late
Attempt To Hear Him Breathing
Or Feel His Shifting Weight
Im Confused And Quizical
Funny Dontcha Know
I Just Wan Get Physical
Let Me Tell Ya How
Do Me Good Ill Tell You Anything You Want To Hear
Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good
Do Me Good And All This Craziness Will Disappear
Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good Do Me Good
I can't wait to get away from you
And surprisingly you hate me too
We only communicate when we need to fight
But we are best friends...right?
You're too good at pretending you don't care
There's enough resentment in the air
Now you don't want me in the flat
When you’re home at night
But we're best friends right?
You’re Stephanie and I'm Paulette
You know what all my faces mean
And it's easy to smoke it up, forget
Everything that happened in between
Nicky’s right when he says I can't win
So I don't wanna tell you anything
I can't even think about
How you feel inside
But we are best friends, right?
I don't like the way you say my name
You're always looking for someone to blame
Now you want me to suffer just cause
You was born wide
But we are best friends right?
You’re Stephanie and I'm Paulette
You know what all my faces mean
And its easy to smoke it up, forget
Everything that happened in between
So I had love for you when I was 4
And there's no one I wanna smoke with more
Someday I'll buy the Rizla, so you get the dro
Cause we are best friends right, right, right, right?
Because we are best friends right?
Because we are best friends right?
You're just a little boy underneath that hat
You need your nerve to hide your ego – don't come with that
You think everything is handed to you free
But it's not that easy, no
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
My girl says I'm too sensitive to ride with you
But I'm not listening to her, mm hm
Yes I'm perceptive so when I've dance with you you'll whisk your head back the way it were
As you were
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
- Ad lib -
Oh, I'm not ruling you out
I'm just in doubt as to what you say you're all about, yeah
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta show you now and them
I gotta know you now and then
Tell your boyfriend next time he around
To buy his own weed and don’t wear my shit down
I wouldn’t care if bre would give me some more
I’d rather him leave you then leave him my draw
When you smoke all my weed man
You gotta call the green man
So I can get mine and you get yours
Once is enough to make me attack
So bring me a bag and your man can come back
I’ll check him at the door make sure he got green
I’m tighter than airport security teams
When you smoke all my weed man
You gotta call the green man
So I can get mine and you get yours
I’m my own man so when will you learn
That you got a man but I got to burn
Don’t make no difference if I end up alone
I’d rather have myself a smoke my homegrown
It's got me addicted, does more than any dick did
Yeh I can get mine and you get yours
Yeh I can get mine and you get yours
I couldn't resist him
His eyes were like yours
His hair was exactly the shade of brown
He's just not as tall, but I couldn't tell
It was dark and I was lying down
You are everything – he means nothing to me
I can't even remember his name
Why're you so upset?
Baby, you weren't there and I was thinking of you when I came
What do you expect?
You left me here alone; I drank so much and needed to touch
Don't overreact – I pretended he was you
You wouldn't want me to be lonely
How can I put it so you understand?
I didn't let him hold my hand
But he looked like you; I guess he looked like you
No he wasn't you
But you can still trust me, this ain't infidelity
It's not cheating; you were on my mind
Attracts me, till it hurts to concentrate,
Distract me, stop me doin work i hate
Just to show him how it feels;
I walk past his desk in heels
One leg resting on the chair
From the side he pulls my hair.
Amy Amy Amy
Although i've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
Your just to hard to ignore
Masculin you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Wheres my morel parallel
It takes me, half an hour to write a verse
He makes me imagine it from bad to worse
My weakness from the other sex
Every time his shoulders flex
The way the shirt hangs off his back
My train of thought spins right off track
Amy Amy Amy
Although i've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
He's just to hard to ignore
Masculin he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Wheres my morel parallel
His own style, right down to his deisel jeans
Imobile, i can't think by any means
Underwhere petes at the top
I'll let you know where you should stop
>From the picture my mind drew
I know I'd look good on you
Amy Amy Amy
Although i've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
Your just to hard to ignore
Masculin you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Wheres my morel parallel
Creative energy abused
All my lyrics go unused
When i clock black hair blue eyes
I drift off i fantasize
Amy Amy Amy
Although i've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
He's just to hard to ignore
Masculin he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Wheres my morel parallel
Amy Amy Amy
Although i've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
He's just to hard to ignore
Masculin he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Wheres my morel parallel
When I walk in your shoes
I understand a man confused
There must have been but I don't care
I feel the way your soul does there
Darling they empathise
Looking through your bloodshot eyes
And I know you you're so frustrated
Above we all become what we once hated
Be slight nobody can be that wise
I can't help ya if you won't help yourself
I can't help ya if you don't help yourself
You can only get so much from someone yeah
You can get so much from me
I can't help ya if you won't help yourself
You've got a degree a in philosophy
So you think you're cleverer than me
But I'm not just some drama queen
Cos it's where you're at not where you've been
So what do you expect from me
To hold your head above the sea
And there are you even though you're bigger
Cos don't you know you crush my tiny figure
And anyway we're still so young
[Help Yourself Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com]
And this isn't yet the day
I can't help ya if you won't help yourself
I can't help ya if you don't help yourself
You can only get so much from someone yeah
I can't help ya if you won't help yourself
You might be twenty-five but in my mind
I see you at sixteen years or most of the time
And I'm just a child and you're full grown
And no I'm nothing like I've ever known yeah
I'm nothing like I've ever known
