Every time I see you I get a bad vibe Just thinking of someone else in between your thighs And you thought you were slick, had tricks up you sleeve But I'm sick of your stupid ass and I know you're tired of me That's why I say When we were together, we never turned our backs on each other Now that we're separated, we can't stand one another I don't want to be with you put that on everything I own I can't believe I stayed around that damn long If I never see you again I won't be mad at all Cause I believe that you are my downfall When we were together, we never turned our backs on each other Now that we're separated, we can't stand one another (You did me wrong) You did me wrong, I thought you were true You ran out of my life and now, I'm so through with you I remember when you used to sit there I would wrap you in my arms and you would say to me Yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea (You did me wrong) You did me wrong, I thought you were true You ran out of my life and now, I'm so through with you I remember when you used to sit there I would wrap you in my arms and you would say to me Yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea When we were together, we never turned our backs on each other Now that we're separated, we can't stand one another
