Lyrics

When I do everything for you

Expressing the effort and dedication put into a relationship.

And you say that you want it too

Despite the efforts, the partner claims to desire the relationship.

I miss the point completely

Feeling misunderstood or not grasping the essence of the situation.

And you don't understand

Partner's lack of comprehension adds to the confusion.


Then I completely get all mad

Frustration leads to anger and negative behavior.

And look the part and treat you bad

External actions reflect internal emotions, treating the partner poorly.

I've more fun laying on a bed of roses

Expressing a preference for a more comfortable and pleasant state, symbolized by a bed of roses.


Oh boy, I now can hardly wait

Anticipation of negativity or criticism despite efforts.

Do everything so you can hate

Performing actions to elicit dislike from the partner.

Behind my back imeuic

Mentioning actions behind the speaker's back, possibly betrayal.

And I don't understand

Feeling perplexed by the partner's actions.


Again I should be telling you

Stating the intention to fulfill responsibilities in the relationship.

I'll do what I'm supposed to do

Commitment to doing what is expected in the relationship.

I've more fun laying on a bed of roses

Reiterating the preference for a positive, comfortable state.


There'll be no next time, now

Declaring that there won't be another chance for reconciliation.

I've seen the light, oh yeah

Realization or enlightenment, possibly acknowledging mistakes.

There'll be no next time, now

Reiterating the finality of the decision, emphasizing no second chances.

La-la la-da-da da

Using nonspecific vocalizations to conclude the lyrics.
