The Mean Ex-Boyfriend Song

 

The Mean Boyfriend Song

 Here's the ten thousanth song about that abusive relationship I was in, yesiree. See, I'm writing a graphic novel about said yucky relationship, so it's on my mind. I guess this song is about how I sorta got used to being uncomfortable, apprehensive, and ill-at-ease all the time when I was around this particular ex-boyfriend (until I couldn't stand it anymore and left the relationship).

The lyrics are:

I had a boyfriend – he was really mean
And I was afraid

That he would yell at me – he would start to scream

That was just the way
It was
The way it was

Nine times out of ten he would be nice
On time number ten he would turn into ice

Why did I put up with him – I can't really say
And I was afraid
life with him was getting grim every single day
That was just the way
It was
The way it was

It seemed like it was normal to be
With him and feel like I could not be me

I had some constant apprehension
My staying is beyond my comprehension
Well I guess I know why I stayed there
I lied to myself but to be fair
To my old self I was unaware
Dudes who seem nice turn into uncar-
Ing mean bastards if they're psychopath

I ran fastest to escape his wrath

I had a boyfriend - he had a screw loose
And I was afraid
He was wrapped around my neck, an ever tightened noose
And that's just the way it was
The way it was

Here's the alternative player thingy, as usual:
