[Verse 1]
Why you coming round?
Why you coming here?
You tell me that I'm worthless as I turn to get us a beer
You're living at the top
I'm dying underneath
I don't need anyone at my grave laying their wreath
So don't insist
[Chrous]
You tried to tell me about your issues
I don't need to know about them anymore
Your issues
And why you're standing in my kitchen door
I don't want to talk about it
I don't care
But what's that glistening in your stare?
[Verse 2]
They say the world is round
Will you have another beer?
Killing time all the time isn't what brings you here
Life is at the top
Death is underneath
So I don't want anyone digging up from beneath
Darling, insist
[Chorus]
Do not tell me about your issues
Oh god you're gonna talk about them more and more
I'll get some tissues
Cause soon you'll be crying on my kitchen floor
I don't need to talk about it, I don't care
But what's this hovering in the air?
[Bridge]
How can you be so cruel?
How am I just a fool?
[Verse 3]
Cause I'm glad you came around
So good you stopped by here
It was really pointless but it proved to bring us more near
Now you're in the top
And I am underneath
What the fuck's going on? I know this will bring us grief
But I can't resist
[Chorus]
You and your issues
I wish I didn't have to hear them anymore
But they're your issues
So now as were lying on my kitchen floor
Go ahead and talk about it I don't care
While I'm running my fingers all through your hair
