lyrics

How'd I get a roommate
Who's so selfish and unfair?
You always take for granted
The amenities I share.
You disobey the rules
And leave our house in disrepair . . .
You're so high-maintenance,
But you don't even care.

You don't pay rent.
Don't pay the bills.
It's always me who pays the money
For your pills.
You've never paid for dinner once,
Although you've never missed a meal.
And that's just . . . super.

You think you're cute,
So you connive.
You've got your license,
But you never,
Ever drive.
It's like my car's your limousine
With your chauffeur behind the wheel.
And that's just . . . awesome.
(For you.)

Whenever we walk around the block,
You wanna walk fifteen feet ahead.
And rather than snuggle on the couch,
You'd rather strew trash around instead.
But any time you decide it's time,
You want me to stop and rub your head.
It's all about you!
YOU!!!

You never clean.
You merely grin.
Won't even think to wipe your feet
When you come in.
You're often awful to your sister
And you always steal her food.
And you ignore me when I call you
If you aren't in the mood.
But given all the things I give you?
You could show some frickin' gratitude!
But no . . .

No!

Why do I still love you
When this deal is so unfair?
Do I just let you stay
Because I want somebody there?
Or is there something deeper
To explain how much I care?

(Hang on. I have to go and
Vacuum up your hair . . .)
