You're Not The Girl You Said You Were Lyrics

[Verse]
Could not have been any more of a disaster
I didn't know he was such a good actor
And she, too, kept a lid on
How could they both just spit on 18 years?

And as for you, well I just don't know what to tell you
I cannot look at your face, ah hell
You have got to be f*cking kidding
This whole thing is f*cking bringing me to tears

You could have any boy you like
It's not like you never had a choice
And I couldn't tell you if I tried

[Chorus]
It's bad enough to find out this late
But to think we did is too much to take
'Cause you're not the girl you said you were
And I'm not the man I think I am

Scrub the skin and wash the taste
Of your mother's sin and my father's mistake
'Cause you're not the girl you said you were
And I'm not the man I think I am
[Verse]
To think about it makes me sick to my stomach
I cannot sleep, I can't believe that I've done it
All because of these two cheaters
She'll deny it but don't believe that he's your Dad

And as for you, well I just don't know how to play it
It's too hard, wish I could just come out and say it But where do I begin with all of this?

You could have picked another guy
It's not like you even have to try
And now it's much more than just goodbye

[Chorus]
It's bad enough to find out this late
But to think we did is too much to take
'Cause you're not the girl you said you were
And I'm not the man I think I am

Scrub the skin and wash the taste
Of your mother's sin and my father's mistake
'Cause you're not the girl you said you were
And I'm not the man I think I am

[Bridge]
So when it was open, I went to his office
And found all those letters that he got from your Mum
"I think that the baby's yours, if you know what's good for you, you won't tell a soul!"
So I guess mum's the word
[Outro]
It's bad enough to find out this late
But to think we did is too much to take
'Cause you're not the girl you said you were
And I'm not the man I think I am

Scrub the skin and wash the taste
Of your mother's sin and my father's mistake
'Cause you're not the girl you said you were
And I'm not the man I think I am
