D-DU-UDU
 this part is played in bass):
I  hear my name
I  hear the trash you're talking
In  your sleep
The  secrets that you're keeping
A  chick, that's  smart
Did  you really think that you could keep  her in the dark?
Does  she purr?
Does  she make it hard?
Hard  to speak
Does  she dress the part?
I'm  sure she'll take  some getting used to
Darlin,  she won't ever be me
I  felt the bite
Take  a spit
 Suck the poison out of me
 I'll make you beg
 Make you come
 To your senses
 If you keep  up the shit
 Take the  hit
 Dig the grave
This  is how it goes down
This  is how it goes down
 same order)
 Gonna run
 Gonna scream
 Gonna crawl round on your knees
 When you realize that no one's gonna measure up to me
 Doesn't matter cause I'm over it now
 This is how it goes down
 This is how it goes down
 I'm gonna rage
 Stay out really late
 I'm gonna hang with all my friends you hate
 I may try that threesome
 Better late than never and
 Better without you
 This is your future as I see it
 You will be homeless, poor, and broken
 She will have left you when she finds out who you are
 You're nothing but an extra, and baby I'm the star
 same):
 I felt the bite
 Take a spit
 Suck the poison out of me
 I'll make you beg
 Make you come
 To your senses
 If you keep up the shit
 Take the hit
 Dig the grave
 This is how it goes down
 This is how it goes down
 Gonna run
 Gonna scream
 Gonna crawl round on your knees
 When you realize that no one's gonna measure up to me
 Doesn't matter cause I'm over it now
 This is how it goes down
 This is how it goes down
 I suppose this is how the story goes, but
 Ever since that door closed, I've been going (down, down, down, down)
 The drain and the pain got me nauseous (down, down, down)
 I should have been more cautious or clever
 Whatever, you'll never find a dude with a better headgame, and
 You can take that both ways
 You laughin’ like I'm playin’ wit your fingers up like oh ? (down, down, down, down)
 Wish you would have a threesome without me I pull a O. G. (down, down, down)
 And text you something incriminating pictures from my old days
 I felt the bite
 Take a spit
 Suck the poison out of me
 I'll make you beg
 Make you come
 To your senses
 If you keep up the shit
 Take the hit
 Dig the grave
 This is how it goes down
 This is how it goes down
 Gonna run
 Gonna scream
 Gonna crawl round on your knees
 When you realize that no one's gonna measure up to me
 Doesn't matter cause I'm over it now
 This is how it goes down
 This is how it goes down
 Somebody doesn't like you
 Cause you're not such a bigshot dude
 Might wanna rethink it through
 Coulda asked me, I woulda told you the truth
 Somebody doesn't like you
 Cause you're not such a bigshot dude
 Might wanna rethink it through
 Shoulda asked me, I woulda told you the truth
