[Pre-Hook x4]

Look, please girls, just listen too me

Please don't stare and look right through me

Don't act like you never knew me

I need to apologise


[Hook]

I'm really sorry

To all the girls I treated badly

Dessa plus Alisha, Hadleigh

I'm really really sorry

I really tried to be discreet

Cause really I'm not one to cheat

Not sorry I did it at all

No not at all, I was a fool

If you put me in the same situation

Still would've had the inclination

Just sorry that they caught me


[Verse 1]

Look, I'm sorry for the things that I said

Sorry that I didn't make the bed

Sorry that I ate all the bread

And I'm sorry that I gave her head

Sorry that when you came through the door

I lacked awareness, you were there miss

But in fairness; my head was between her legs

I know that's a poor excuse

But babe, can we call it a truce?

I must have been seduced

Cause compared to you she's a moose

I never meant for you to find out

Thought that I had it all thought out

But you came home early and didn't text

If you hadn't have done that we'd be having sex


[Hook]


[Verse 2]

Look, I feel like I'm always apologising

Which I'm finding quite surprising

With other young birds I never argued

Well maybe we did, over food

Never like we do, over crap like

When I'm with your friends

What I chat like, staying out late

And paying cabs, side of the bed

And your stomach flab, the state of your abs

Okay that's kind of malicious, but I'm ambitious

For me, for you, for both of us

And that's why I feel we must discuss

Why I'm glad you caught me red-handed

Licking her snatch, if I'm candid

Don't wanna be branded a chauvinist

I've said my piece, let's get over this

[Hook]


[Verse 3]

I'm not sure how much you know about this

But there's two main ways we can go about this

I admit stuff, and you forgive and forget

There's no regrets and you don't shout like you got Tourettes

Plus the cigarettes, they have to go

And I'll stop making stupid threats

Ignore my mates, they're placing bets

If you choose on the other hand

To not forgive, where I stand

Is that I tell you harshly

To give me back my car keys

I'll take back the pretty necklace

If you choose to go and wreck this

See, I might be the one who's analysing

But you'll be the one who's apologising


[Hook]
