[Verse 1]
Do you still have my favorite book?
The same one you took
With the dog ears and cup rings
That's not worth a look
I swear I saw it in your car
On our way to the bar
Under fast food and asked you
What was your favorite part

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can't have a favorite if you don't know a thing
And I can't even fight you if you're not in the ring

[Chorus]
I'm so sorry you're mean
This is why we can never have nice things
'Cause if someone, anyone
Could say no to you
It must be the last thing they do
It must be the last thing they do

[Verse 2]
Don't you think it's sort of fucked
That new year's eve was not enough
Watching cartoons in the basement
While your boyfriend threw up
I must have known it even then
That secrets never make a friend
And could have and should have
Are the same in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
And it's not like I said I don't like what we've got
It's more like i said you should be what you're not

[Chorus]
I'm so sorry you're mean
This is why we can never have nice things
'Cause if someone, anyone
Could say no to you
It must be the last thing they do

[Bridge]
It must be the last thing I
Ever want to hear from you
With a cup of tea and a shit excuse
Did it hurt when you broke through from hell?
Bloodstains on the second snow
And I'm dead drunk walking home alone
It feels like I'm hitting myself
It feels like you know me too well

[Outro]
This is why we can't have nice things
This is why we can't have nice things
