Lately - The Ataris

Lately i’ve been feeling

A little bit neglected.

When it comes to your ex-boyfriends,

Well, i guess i’m overprotective.

But it’s nothing personal

I just wanted you to tell me that you

Care.

Lately i’ve been thinking bout'

Stickin’my head in a toaster.

I never asked to take a ride

On this emotional roller-coaster

It’s you that i want,

And lately it feels like you’re not there.

Lately i’ve been contemplating

Jumping in the ocean.

Sometimes even spock would show

A little more emotion!

Do you still love me now

As much as you loved me yesterday?

(chorus) i try to let it out…

I bitch, i cry, moan, whine, scream and

Shout today,

But the wall wouldn’t listen to me!

Why wouldn’t it listen to me?

I’m sick of always cryin'

I don’t wanna be sick of trying,

But you’ve gotta want me too.

Lately i’ve been hoping for

A little bit of affection.

Sometimes i wish that you had came

With your own set of directions.

I guess it’s not that easy,

But i hope that you still love me anyway

Lately i’ve been thinkin’bout'

Takin’a vow of silence.

I’ve never seen a monk result

In any acts of violence.

Or, maybe i’ll just cry

And hope you come around again today.

(repeat chorus)
