​​​taking up the bed Lyrics by Ames

2023

[Verse 1]
Yea, I swear I wasn't always like this
I was never really one for violence
I would tell ya I leave well enough alone
But I'm finally catching up, what'd I miss?
What'd I do to get a slap on my wrist?
Why can't you just leave well enough alone?

[Chorus]
You're already ahead
Why you taking up the bed
On my side?
Gave you what you want
What more do you want?
It's roomy on the top
Tell me how could you be not satisfied
With everything you got
Isn't everything enough?

[Verse 2]
Take a seat, we'll call you whеn it's your turn
That's what they told me after I was hеre first
I'm kinda tired of leaving well enough along
(Well enough alone)
But hey, it's only my life
And I'm outgrowing the times
Gotta let me by, you're rubbing me wrong

[Chorus]
You're already ahead
Why you taking up the bed
On my side?
Gave you what you want
What more do you want?
It's roomy on the top
Tell me how could you be not satisfied
With everything you got
Isn't everything enough?

[Bridge]
Oh the things I would say
The things I would do
Do
If I had my way
If I were you
Why're you taking up the bed on my side?
What more do you want?

[Chorus]
You're already ahead
Why you taking up the bed
On my side?
Gave you what you want
What more do you want?
It's roomy on the top
Tell me how could you be not satisfied
With everything you got
Isn't everything enough?
