Book Report

by Melanie Martinez

[Verse 1]
The teacher set the class
An assignment you must pass
She said there would be no extensions
You had to learn your lesson

[Verse 2]
When she gave us all our books
You kept giving me that look
I ignored your stupid little games
You told the teacher and I denied your claims

[Pre-Chorus]
Open the page, start it fresh
Don't come back to me, don't you second guess
People like you can't win twice
Don't play nice, you gotta pay the price

[Chorus]
I'm gonna writе a book report about you-ooh, baby
Don't you understand how it works?
Fell in lovе with you once, baby
Now can you see how it hurts?

[Post-Chorus]
Writing a book report about a fucked-up love story
You know it well, you took all of the glory

[Verse 3]
I'm not dealing with your bullshit
Dealing with your crap
Give up and admit
You better watch your back

[Verse 4]
Submit your report, you know what to write
I gave it all to you, so you smiled in delight
Then when I couldn't, you attacked
And that was the moment I cracked

[Pre-Chorus]
Open the page, start it fresh
Don't come back to me, don't you second guess
People like you can't win twice
Don't play nice, you gotta pay the price

[Chorus]
I'm gonna write a book report about you-ooh, baby
Don't you understand how it works?
Fell in love with you once, baby
Now can you see how it hurts?

[Bridge]
Don't let it go overdue, remember it well
Don't forget me, you gotta know how to spell
You dealt the damage, you know it first-hand
Why'd you act so surprised when I took a stand?

[Chorus]
I'm gonna write a book report about you-ooh, baby
Don't you understand how it works?
Fell in love with you once, baby
Now can you see how it hurts?

I'm gonna write a book report about you-ooh, baby
Don't you understand how it works?
Fell in love with you once, baby
Now can you see how it hurts?

[Post-Chorus]
Writing a book report about a fucked-up love story
You know it well, you took all of the glory
