Lola Young Good Books Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know that you push me away
And you got better things to be doing than making my day
And I know, I know life can be hard
But you didn't need to scream in my face when parking your dumb little car

[Pre-Chorus]
And I gave you an ultimatum, it's me or the weed
And you laughed in my face and said, "What the hell do you mean?"
And I just wanna be your favourite priority
But I'll never be, I'll never be and
[Chorus]
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left, say you're not that kind of guy
I work hard to stay in your good books
But you don't read, so why do I try?
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
While I shovel that shit to the left instead of sleeping at night
I work hard to stay in your good books
So, next time, keep that in my mind

[Post-Chorus]
Keep that in my mind
Keep that in my mind
Mind, mind, mind
Keep that in my mind

[Verse 2]
You broke my heart, and then my phone
And you're passive-aggressive, 'cause you can't learn a lesson
You ain't been told
So that's my bad and that's my fault, and I

[Pre-Chorus]
I gave you an ultimatum, it's me or the weed
And you laughed in my face, said, "What the hell do you mean?" And I just wanna be your favourite priority
But I'll never be, I'll never be and
[Chorus]
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left, say you're not that kind of guy
I work hard to stay in your good books
But you don't read, so why do I try?
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left instead of sleeping at night
I work hard to stay in your good books
So, next time, just keep that in my mind

[Bridge]
Can you keep it in, can you keep it in
Can you keep it in your mind?
Can, can you keep it in, can you keep it in your mind?
Keep me in, can you keep me in your mind?
Can you keep it in your mind?

[Chorus]
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left, say you're not that kind of guy
I work hard to stay in your good books (Oh)
But you don't read (Don't even read), so why do I try?
You make it hard to see beneath the rubble
But I shovel that shit to the left instead of sleeping at night
I work hard to stay (To stay) in your good books
So, next time (Next time), just keep that in my mind
