Symmetry - Bad Influence lyrics
[Verse 1: Symmetry] I know I'm rough around the edges Eyes of a monster I got mirrors at home I only come over to your place when it's late at night Or your parents aren't home I know I got awful habits and ugly stories That are worse then my appearance alone Your mom was asking if you'd been out with me When she did your laundry and smelled my cologne And that's one part my sweat One part yours One part mary jane and bedroom floors Found a couple hits of acid in your pocket And she don't need to ask you where you got it You come from money and private schools The cops are looking for me, can I confide in you I robbed a couple houses But what's that got to do with the way that I feel about you [Chorus] How could you bring me home to your mama Lookin' like this, lookin' like this She'll know I'm a bad influence How could you bring me home to your dad And expect a goodnight kiss, goodnight kiss He'll know that I'm a bad influence [Verse 2: Symmetry] 3 AM tapping on your window Spent a couple days and I'm going crazy Your dad says you're grounded til your 18 And you should stay far away from me You think that I could crawl through your window Would you lay with me? Because I been waiting here patiently I'm sorry, did I get you in trouble? When we're walking around, and people see your face with me I sold my gun, because there might have been some bodies on it I promise to stop selling everything besides chronic Your mom has a lot to say about me but I'm honest I feel like one day, all of that will be behind us I think your dad is on his way down the stairs He probably heard me laughing and he's coming for my head So until he goes back upstairs and turns the lights off I'll be the monster under your bed [Chorus] How could you bring me home to your mama Lookin' like this, lookin' like this She'll know I'm a bad influence How could you bring me home to your dad And expect a goodnight kiss, goodnight kiss He'll know that I'm a bad influence [Hook] I'm a bad influence I know that I'm always in trouble I don't mean to get you in trouble too Your mom and dad keep us apart and that always breaks my heart Because I'm so in love with you [Chorus] How could you bring me home to your mama Lookin' like this, lookin' like this She'll know I'm a bad influence How could you bring me home to your dad And expect a goodnight kiss, goodnight kiss He'll know that I'm a bad influence
