Don't you dare say that you'll braid my hair, babe
If you don't really care
You wanted me sadder, you wanted me sadder
Fishtail, what's the matter with that?

Don't you dare say that you'll braid my hair, babe
If you don't really care
You wanted me sadder, you wanted me sadder
Fishtail, what's the matter with that?
[Verse 1]
Skippin' rope in the bayou, bayou
Slip softly in terrain
Not that smart, but I've got things to say
Palm trees in black and white
I like to watch them sway
You're so funny, I wish I could skinny-dip inside your mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Lately, I've been thinkin' about how things used to be
Swingin' in a nightgown underneath the old oak tree
Almost Victorian with you, you can talk to me
But, lately, I can see
[Chorus]
You wanted me sadder (Baby)
You wanted me sadder
Can't you see it?
For me, you are the one
And if I'm not the one for you, don't just say it
I was on the stairs, Ella Fitzgerald in the air
Feelin' hella rare
Baby, if you care
Baby, don't you dare say
You'll braid my hair, babe
Don't you dare say that you'll braid my hair, babe
If you don't really care
You wanted me sadder
[Verse 2]
Dancin' there in the hot, hot sun
I know that we've got problems
I plan to address them another day
Palm trees in black and white
I see in technicolor
Maybe I'll take my glasses off so I stop painting red flags green
[Pre-Chorus]
Lately, I've been sunnin' in the L.A. riverbed
Wearin' nothin' but the summer bruises on my knees
I like how you talk, how you speak, how you look at me
But, lately, I can see
[Chorus]
You wanted me sadder (Baby)
You wanted me sadder
You wanted me sadder
Can't you see it?
For me, you are the one and if I'm not the one for you
Don't just say it
I was on the stairs, Ella Fitzgerald in the air
Feelin' hella rare
Baby, if you care
Baby, don't you dare say
You'll braid my hair, see
Baby, if you care, then
Baby, don't you dare say
That you really care
Don't you dare say that you'll braid my hair
When you get home tonight
If you don't really care
Yeah, don't you dare say that you'll braid my hair, babe
If you don't really care, see
Don't you braid my hair
If you're not coming home to me
Ah-ah
[Outro]
You want someone sadder
Skippin' rope in the bayou, bayou
Slip softly in terrain
I'm not that smart
But I've got things to say
Ne usuđujete se reći da ćete mi pleteti kosu, dušo
Ako vas zapravo ne zanima
Htjeli ste me tužnije, hteo si da sam tužniji
Fishtail, šta je s tim?
[VERSE 1]
Skipin konop u bayou, bayou
Slicno tiho na terenu
Nije tako pametno, ali imam stvari za reći
Palmine u crno-bijeloj boji
Volim da ih gledam
Tako si smiješna, voleo bih da mogu da se mršavam u vašem umu
[Pre-hor]
U posljednje vrijeme razmišljam o tome kako su stvari nekad bile
Ljuljaju se u spavaćicom ispod starog hrastovog stabla
Skoro viktorijanski s tobom, možeš razgovarati sa mnom
Ali, u posljednje vrijeme vidim
[Chorus]
Htjeli ste me tužniji (beba)
Htjeli ste me tužniji
Zar ne vidite?
Za mene si ti taj
A ako nisam taj za tebe, nemoj samo reći
Bio sam na stepenicama, Ella Fitzgerald u zraku
Osećate se hella retko
Dušo, ako ti je stalo
Dušo, ne usuđuješ se reći
Pleteće mi kosu, dušo
Ne usuđujete se reći da ćete mi pleteti kosu, dušo
Ako vas zapravo ne zanima
Htjeli ste me tužniji
[VERSE 2]
Dancin tamo na vrućem, vrućem suncu
Znam da imamo problema
Planiram da im se obratim još jedan dan
Palmine u crno-bijeloj boji
Vidim u tehniku
Možda ću skinuti naočare, pa prestajem da slikam crvene zastave zelene boje
[Pre-hor]
U posljednje vrijeme sam sunčao u koritu L.a.
Nosi ništa, ali ljetne modrice na mojim kolenima
Sviđa mi se kako pričaš, kako govoriš, kako me gledaš
Ali, u posljednje vrijeme vidim
[Chorus]
Htjeli ste me tužniji (beba)
Htjeli ste me tužniji
Htjeli ste me tužniji
Zar ne vidite?
Za mene si ta i ako nisam onaj za tebe
Nemoj samo reći
Bio sam na stepenicama, Ella Fitzgerald u zraku
Osećate se hella retko
Dušo, ako ti je stalo
Dušo, ne usuđuješ se reći
Pletaćeš mi kosu, vidi
Dušo, ako te briga, onda
Dušo, ne usuđuješ se reći
Da si zaista zanima
Ne usuđujete se reći da ćete mi pleteti kosu
Kad večeras dođete kući
Ako vas zapravo ne zanima
Da, ne usuđujete se reći da ćete mi pleteti kosu, dušo
Ako vas zapravo ne zanima, vidite
Ne pletela mi kosu
Ako mi se ne vraćaš kući
Ah ah
[Outro]
Želiš nekoga tužnije
Skipin konop u bayou, bayou
Slicno tiho na terenu
Nisam tako pametan
Ali imam stvari za reći
