[Verse]
I'm not trusting no nighttime
Falling into arms with the wrong eyes
My guard high, so very high
Jesus doesn't have hotline
Who am I supposed to call but the dark side?
Trouble finds where I can hide
[Chorus]
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't trust him
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't love him
[Refrain]
Ten tonne heart everybody wanna steal
They want my song, but my pain don't gеt a deal
You know I know just how you feel
You know I know just how you feel
You want the skin but refusе to take the baggage
You want the words but refuse to do the damage
You know you don't know how I feel
You know you don't know how—
[Chorus]
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't trust him
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't love him
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't trust him
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't love him
[Refrain]
Ten tonne heart everybody wanna steal
They want my song, but my pain don't get a deal
You know I know just how you feel
You know I know just how you feel
You want the skin but refuse to take the baggage
You want the words but refuse to do the damage
You know you don't know how I feel
You know you don't know how—
[Chorus]
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't trust him (Why you do me like that?)
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like
Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?
Wild Jasmine, don't love him (Why you do me like that?)
[Outro]
(Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like)
(Why you do me, why you do me, why you do me like that?)

‘Wild Jasmine’ is inspired by Tony Allen. There’s kind of something South Asian about the way the guitar moves in that song. It’s about me telling my mom not to trust a man, or love him. Her name is Jasmine, and she is just like the plant—the plant naturally has to grow wild and it grows however it...
