[Verse 1]
It takes less than two minutes to answer
It takes a flower longer to fully grow
And if I would've known, would've known
Why'd you have to rush it?

[Chorus]
I'd have to take the blame for you again
I'd have to take all the bullshit again
Teach you the same lesson now and then
I'd have to play the old you again

[Verse 2]
That person never showed any interest
He was so into controllin' me and anybody else
He favors whoever and whenever
Daily, ooh, it irritates me
And you try to bе perfect
You would be if you wеre just for me, worth it to me
All you need is real love, I got somethin' for you to show for it
Got a basket full of bricks
That pressures' finally weightin' all in

[Chorus]
I'd have to take the blame for you again
I'd have to take all the bullshit again
Teach you the same lesson now and then
I'd have to play the old you again
(I'd have to take the blame for you again) I'd have to take all the bullshit again
(Teach you the same lesson now and then) I'd have to become the old you again
