Lyrics of
This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

It was so nice throwing big parties
Jump into the pool from the balcony
Everyone swimming in a champagne sea (whooooo)
And there are no rules when you show up here
Bass beat rattling the chandelier
Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year
Pre-Chorus
So why'd you have to rain on my parade?
I'm shaking my head, I'm locking the gates
This is why we can't have nice things, dar-ling
Because you break them
I had to take them awaayayayay
This is why we can't have nice things, ho-ney
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about meeEeEeeEeEe?
This is why we can't have nice things
pitch bend
It was so nice being friends again
There I was, giving you a second chance
But then you stabbed in the back while shaking my hand
And therein lies the issue
Friends don't try to trick you
Get you on the phone and mind-twist you
And so I took an axe to a mended fence
Pre-Chorus
But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately
If only you weren't so shady
This is why we can't have nice things, dar-ling
Because you break them
I had to take them awaayayayay
This is why we can't have nice things, ho-ney
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about meeEeEeeEeEe?
This is why we can't have-
Bridge
Here's a toast to my real friends
They don't care about that he-said-she-said
And here's to my baby
He ain't reading what they call me lately
And here's to my momma
Had to listen to all this drama
And here's to you
??Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do
N.C.
This is why we can't have nice things, dar-ling (darling)
Because you break them
I had to take them away
This is why we can't have nice (ah-ah) things,(oh-no) hon(baby)-ney
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about meeeee?
This is why we can't have nice things, dar-ling
(And here's to my real friends)
Because you break them
I had to take them and here's to my baby
This is why we can't have nice things, dar-ling
(They didn't care about that he-said-she-said)
Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about meeeee?
This is why we can't have
nice things.
