Hop to Another SongBrown guilty eyes and little white lies, yeh
I played dumb but I always knew…
That you’d talk to her, maybe said something worse,
I kept quiet so I could keep you.
And ain’t it funny
how you ran to her
the second that we called it quits?
And ain’t it funny
how you said you were friends
now it sure enough don’t look like it –
You betrayed me
and I know that you’ll never feel sorry
for the way I hurt, yeh.
You’d talk to her
when we were together,
loved you at your worst
but that didn’t matter.
It took you two weeks
to go off and date her.
Guess you didn’t cheat
but you’re still a traitor.
Now you bring her around
just to shut me down,
show her off like she’s a new trophy.
I know if you were true
there’s just no way that you
could fall in love with somebody that quickly.
Ain’t it funny,
all the twisted games,
all the questions you used to avoid?
Ain’t it funny,
remember I brought her up
and you told me I was paranoid –
You betrayed me
and I know that you’ll never feel sorry
for the way I hurt, yeh.
You’d talk to her
when we were together,
loved you at your worst
but that didn’t matter.
It took you two weeks
to go off and date her.
Guess you didn’t cheat
but you’re still a traitor.
How I wish that you had thought this through
before I went and fell in love with you.
(ah ah ah)
When she’s dancing to the songs we played
don’t you dare forget about the way –
You betrayed me
and I know that you’ll never feel sorry
for the way I hurt, yeh.
You’d talk to her
when we were together,
you gave me your word
but that didn’t matter.
It took you two weeks
to go off and date her.
Guess you didn’t cheat
but you’re still… you’re still a traitor. (ah ah ah)
Yeh you’re still a traitor.
oo-oo-ooh…
How I wish that you had thought this through
before I went and fell in love with you.
