Darryl Songtext
von Lake Street Dive

Darryl
I′m over the barrel for you
You were my Pharaoh
I was your Cleopatra too
A little sparrow
Told me that you had been untrue
And now I'm feral
And I look terrible thanks to you

I change myself every day, watch what I say
I play dumb when you
Treat me like a little Frosted Flake
But goddamn, say couldn′t you, couldn't you
Just this once try treating me fair?


Darryl
I'm over the barrel for you
You were my Pharaoh
I was your Cleopatra too
A little sparrow
Told me that you had been untrue
And now I′m feral
And I look terrible thanks to you

Look what you turned me into
A jealous shrew
I flew three thousand miles just to find
She had the same name too
Now what a shit thing to do
Couldn′t you, couldn't you have
Found a Jane or a Carol?

I wasn′t crazy 'fore I met ya
And I′ll be fine once I let you go, oh-oh
And rest assured that I will
But certainly not until
I'm done playing with my kill

I′ve run a nasty campaign playing dirty games
No shame in hangin' my laundry on the line
How you like your newfound fame
I won't share in this blame
Wouldn′t you, wouldn′t you wanna
Go back and try to repair?

(I'm over the barrel)
(You were my Pharaoh)
(A little sparrow)
(And now I′m feral)
(Darryl)
(I'm over the barrel)
(You were my Pharaoh)
(A little sparrow)
(And now I′m feral)
(Darryl)
(I'm over the barrel)
