[Verse 1]
Negative love
Sceptical lies beneath the frown
Negative love
You're always putting other people down
Then they're gone
As they fade away, well, who's to say that you were wrong?
[Verse 2]
Negative love
The radio's playing my request
Negative love
You lie before me unimpressed
Why say "Yes"
When you know all the ways to say "No" best?
[Chorus]
And please don't make an exception for me
Don't make an exception
There's no hope for me and you
'Cause I'm a little negative too
[Verse 3]
Cynical you
I see the look that's in your eyes
Cynical you
And it's saying "I don't sympathize"
No surprise
Only the naïve believe in love and other lies
[Chorus]
And please don't make an exception for me
Don't make an exception
There's no hope for me and you
'Cause I'm a little negative too
I'm a little negative too
[Bridge]
We're the wrong side of one
I should change my name to John Undone
Or maybe we're onto something
Could we end up positive after all?
[Chorus]
Please don't lower your standards for me
Don't lower your standards
There's no hope for me and you
'Cause I'm a little negative too
There's nothing for me and you
'Cause I'm a little negative
I'm a little cynical
I'm a little negative
I'm a little critical
I'm a little negative too
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm
