Hypocrite Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Silly girl, I run around
And never know my reasons
And though you're laughing with me
I know what you say about me
I can't explain
It's not your business anyway
So don't say you understand
And don't pretend you're on my side
And I remember when you
Hated her for sleeping next to him
I see your smiling face but
I know you've done worse to me

[Chorus]
You hypocrite
Don't talk to me 'cause you're not fit to know me
So don't pretend
That you could've ever been a friend

[Post-Chorus]
And still, I'm sure
You think it's okay
What you've done to me
'Cause I'm so bad to him
Don't even try to hide
Behind that stupid lie
I know your kind
And I know where your loyalties lie
[Verse 2]
Silly girls, we run around
And never know our reasons
And though I understand
I guess I say that you betrayed me

[Chorus]
I'm a hypocrite
I dish it out but I can't take it
I know you think it's wrong
And maybe you're right but this is my song


[Post-Chorus]
And still, I'm sure
You think that it's okay
What she did to me
'Cause I'm so bad to him
Don't even try to hide
Behind that stupid smile
I know our kind
And I know where our loyalties lie

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
