about

Don't Work is an homage to soul music of the past with a Hip-Hop swing about a crazy ex lover, from his point of view.

lyrics

Oh lord, I know what’s wrong and I saw it with my own two eyes
then I saw you with that man who you claim to be a friend oh why


And I thought that you would be a little different from the rest
I would surprise you at your job and leave some flowers on your desk
but I guess, oh I guess, oh I guess that I was wrong, I was wrong


It don’t work for me (for me, it don't work for me)

It don’t work for me (for me, it don't work for me)

It don’t work for me (for me, it don't work for me)

It don’t work for me (for me, it don't work for me)


Now it’s an uphill battle every time we debate
cause I see you on your phone but you say you’re faith
ful, of shit I know you’re lyin’
who’s this dude in your contacts named uncle Brian?
or dad? you think I wouldn’t catch it?
Keep playin’ around and I swear you’ll regret it
cause I was all up in your laundry ‘bout an hour ago
and I found some draws I never saw before
stop frontin’, girl tell me the truth
I checked your Facebook, insta and even myspace too
because I’m thorough girl, because I care
now you got the law all up in my hair
telling me I cant be within these feet from you
but how am I supposed to keep from trying to prove
that these last three months were the best for my health
and if you won’t be with me then you won’t be with anyone else
(I’m like)

And I thought that you would be a little different from the rest
so I surprised you at your parent's house and threatened my own death
but I guess, oh I guess, oh I guess that I was wrong, I was wrong


Now girl what the fuck you trying to prove
ey girl what the fuck you trying to prove?
and I don’t know why you putting me through this
if you find another man than I might act stupid
and I don’t know why you putting me through this
if you find another man than I might act stupid
