Better Do Better Lyrics
You're back, sitting on my doorstep
Ah yeah like nothing happened
Telling me you're free and oh
Can you see me again
Yeah right, You've been kicked out
Do you think I'm that stupid
You said you're free but didn't he just oh oh oh
get tired of you kid
Oh, I could not eat for days
I cried so much my face
Has never been the same
And now you're back here with your lies
I hope you realise
You think I'm gonna take you back
You'd better do better than that
I'll tell ya how it's gonna be
Don't you never ever come near me
Let me tell you how I've been
I've been hiding from my friends
Hiding from the world
Hiding from myself
You think you'll come round here
Start singing in my ear
Girl you damaged me
I don't forgive so easily
You'd better do better than that
Your face makes me want to be sick
Ah yeah it's a physical reaction
You'd better leave because you see I
Can't; won't be blamed for my actions
Oh, how I ever loved you
So dumb, how did I ever trust you
But you and he laughed at me, oh yeah
When you're laid together
Oh, I could not eat for days
I cried so much my face
Has never been the same
And now you're back here with your lies
I hope you realise
You think I'm gonna take you back
You'd better do better than that
I'll tell ya how it's gonna be
Don't you never ever come near me
Let me tell you how I've been
I've been hiding from my friends
Hiding from the world
Hiding from myself
You think you'll come round here
Start singing in my ear
Girl you damaged me
I don't forgive so easily
You better do better than that
I gave you everything I had girl
But you had to try and take some more
You went behind my back girl
Cheated on me, I was the last to know
Did everything we have girl
Meant nothing to ya,
Well I was such a fool
Now you come crawling back girl
Well let me tell ya I am through with you
I'm back up off the floor
And I won't get hurt no more
I've been waiting for this day when
You'll be back here with your lies
I hope you realise
You think I'm gonna take you back
You'd better do better than that
I'll tell ya how it's gonna be
Don't you bever ever come near me
Let me tell you how I've been
I've been hiding from my friends
Hiding from the world
Hiding from myself
You think you'll come round here
Start singing in my ear
Girl you damaged me
I don't forgive so easily
You better do better than that
Say something (something, something)
Say something (something, something)
You'd better do better than that! (reverb)
Ah yeah like nothing happened

The lyrics are slightly wrong, it should be 'I tell you how it's gonna be, Don't you nver ever come near me. '
Love this song so much...
As well as the lyric mistake pointed out by butterflykiss theres another one- it should be "You better leave cos you see I can't, won't be blamed for my actions."
Great song, really angry and bitter. Definitely reminds me of a few girls. Nice to have a song where the lyrics make coherent sense for a change instead of random lyrics just to rhyme.
its so damn blunt, i love it! and yes very impowering after a break up! Better than all those love songs 4 it! Just love the song 2 bits really he has such a good voice and the lyrics are awesome.
You think I'm gonna take you back You'd better do better than that I'll tell ya how it's gonna be Don't you never ever come near me
love it
God this song is great. I mean the whole album is. But the thing that strikes me as funny is how he cried so much his face has never been the same. God she did some damage huh?
Could very well be the best song of the album.. for me it is, I think.. very catchy and nice tune..
Lyrics are pretty good too, I like the "I've been hiding" part.. I think it's about a girl that's playing games with his mind..
Great song! Probably my favourite on the album too.
Pretty obvious what its about.
Love the line 'Your face makes me want to be sick' - Lol.
Very nice song this. The song is pretty self explanatory. Love the chorus so much!
love it, love the album! song is perfect for me rite now, i simply feel like screamin it to my ex!
I agree, best song on the album.
Let me tell you how I've been: I've been hiding from my friends... Hiding from the world... Hiding from myself...
Great lyrics...
I adore this song. It is definatly the best on the album. The lyrics are great and so are Hard-Fi. Kind of self explanitory.
