[Verse 1]
I've informed you to leave
'Cause I can't afford to lose more sleep
I get ill when I get tired
So I'll try to rest if you'll stand guard
[Chorus]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, whoa
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do
[Verse 2]
I've informed you to leave
'Cause I can't stand to hear you breathe
I chew up and I choke down
The scraps you choose to leave around
[Chorus]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, whoa
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do
[Bridge]
Apparitions still won't leave me alone
It's as if you never left
How am I supposed to remember you
When you won't let me forget?
[Verse 3]
I've informed you to leave (I've informed you to leave)
'Cause I can't afford to lose more sleep (I can't afford to lose more sleep)
There's your shoes, and there's the door (There's your shoes, and there's the door)
Please don't come here anymore (Please don't come here anymore)
[Chorus]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, whoa
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do
[Instrumental Outro]
