13. This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

[00:05.92] It was so nice throwing big parties

[00:09.42] Jump into the pool from the balcony

[00:12.42] Everyone swimming in a champagne sea

[00:18.07] And there are no rules when you show up here

[00:20.82] Bass beat rattling the chandelier

[00:24.07] Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year

[00:29.07] So why'd you have to rain on my parade?

[00:34.31] I'm shaking my head

[00:36.82] I'm locking the gates

[00:39.57] This is why we can't have nice things, darling

[00:46.57] Because you break them

[00:48.57] I had to take them away

[00:51.56] This is why we can't have nice things, honey

[00:58.57] Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

[01:03.31] This is why we can't have nice things

[01:08.32] It was so nice being friends again

[01:10.82] There I was giving you a second chance

[01:13.82] But you stabbed me in the back while shaking my hand

[01:19.57] And therein lies the issue

[01:21.56] Friends don't try to trick you

[01:22.56] Get you on the phone and mind-twist you

[01:25.57] And so I took an axe to a mended fence

[01:31.07] But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately

[01:36.32] If only you weren't

[01:38.32] So shady

[01:41.31] This is why we can't have nice things, darling

[01:48.80] Because you break them

[01:50.05] I had to take them away

[01:52.80] This is why we can't have nice things, honey

[02:00.06] Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

[02:04.80] This is why we can't have

[02:06.05] Here's a toast to my real friends

[02:08.55] They don't care about that he said, she said

[02:11.55] And here's to my baby

[02:14.56] He ain't reading what they call me lately

[02:17.81] And here's to my momma

[02:23.30] Had to listen to all this drama

[02:26.05] And here's to you

[02:26.80] 'Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do

[02:33.05] Haha, I can't even say it with a straight face

[02:35.80] This is why we can't have nice things, darling (darling)

[02:42.80] Because you break them

[02:45.55] I had to take them away

[02:46.55] This is why we can't have nice things, honey

[02:53.05] Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

[02:58.80] This is why we can't have nice things, darling

[03:03.55] (And here's to my real friends)

[03:05.30] Because you break them

[03:07.30] I had to take them away

[03:09.55] (And here's to my baby)

[03:11.30] This is why we can't have nice things, darling

[03:16.30] (He didn't care about that he said, she said)

[03:17.81] Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

[03:22.04] This is why we can't have nice things
