Hated It - Thrush Hermit

I’m asking you for a favour

You won’t want to do it

But you made me a promise

I’m holding you to it

If you get too close

You’re gonna get burned

If you get too close

You’ll see the tables have turned

Don’t come looking for me

I’ll come looking for you

I had a dream about you

Just the other night

Your hair was braided

I know you really hated it

Walking down the sidewalk

You better take cover

Don’t step on a crack

If you love your mother

You phoned me from the highway

Said you’d be here Friday

I was waiting in the driveway

All my friends have left me

To go to other cities

I’m looking for some pity

You phoned me from the highway

You said you’d be here Friday

I was waiting in your driveway

And you didn’t show up
