Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
You were with your friends, partyin'
When the alcohol kicked in
Said you wanted me dead
So, you show up at my home, all alone
With a shovel and a rose
Do you think I'm a joke?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause people like you always want back what they can't have
But I'm past that and you know that So you should turn back to your rat pack, tell 'em I'm trash
[Chorus]
Tell all of your friends that I'm crazy and drive you mad
That I'm such a stalker, a watcher, a psychopath
And tell them you hate me and dated me just for laughs
So, why do you call me and tell me you want me back? You maniac
[Post-Chorus]
You maniac
You maniac
You maniac
[Verse 2]
You just went too far
Wrecked your car, called me cryin' in the dark
Now you're breakin' my heart So, I show up at your place right away
Wipe the tears off of your face While you beg me to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, people like you always want back what they can't have
But I'm past that and you know that
So you should turn back to your rat pack, tell 'em I'm trash
[Chorus]
Tell all of your friends that I'm crazy and drive you mad
That I'm such a stalker, a watcher, a psychopath
And tell them you hate me and dated me just for laughs
So, why do you call me and tell me you want me back? You maniac
[Post-Chorus]
You maniac
You maniac
You maniac
