Bitter Lemon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You've listened to too many T-Rex LP's
For me to think I could tame you
You crave power like women
The next most beautiful one on the block

[Pre-Chorus]
Where the grass is greener (The grass is greener)
Then you betray for kicks, a stylish man
With all your words
They get me every time

[Chorus]
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
Too sour to swallow
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
A pointless fetish for me
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
Too sour to swallow
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
A pointless fetish for me, you are
[Verse 2]
The angel's tears could not deter you
You crave lust
Like wanting me, weak me
The devil just kissed all the doubts again

[Pre-Chorus]
Damn you, I hate you (The grass is greener, greener)
Yes, I do (The grass is greener, greener)
Damn you, I said I hate you (The grass is greener, greener)
(The grass is greener)
With all of your words
They get me every time

[Chorus]
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
Too sour to swallow
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
A pointless fetish for me
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
Too sour to swallow
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
A pointless fetish for me, you are
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
Too sour to swallow
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
A pointless fetish for me, you are
(Oh, you are)
Oh, you are like bitter lemon
Too sour to swallow
(Oh, you are)
[Outro]
I hate you, yes, I do
I said now, damn you (Oh, you are)
I hate you, yes, I do
(Oh, you are) Damn you
I hate you, yes, I do
Like bitter lemon
(Oh, you are) Damn you
I said I hate you, yes, I do
(Oh, you are) Oh, you are

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
