Eliza Doolittle - Skinny Genes Lyrics

I really don’t like your point of view
I know you’ll never change
Stinging me with your attitude
I’ve got the mind to walk away

I really don’t like your arrogance
Or your policies
You’re ninety-nine percent an embarrassment
Of just wrong (?) qualities

I don’t mind it when you (whistles)
Brings out the best in me when you (whistles)
Show your expertise
When the night always ends with a fight I’m excited
That you are the best in me

I like it when you (whistles)
Can I have some please of that (whistles)
Satisfy my needs
Sometimes I fake that I hate you and make up
So you are the best in me

I really don’t like your skinny jeans
So take them off for me
Show me what you’ve got underneath
So we can do this properly

I really don’t like the way you smile
When you think you’re right
But I will forgive you, the yoke is in the middle
And we’re chewing through the wire

I don’t mind it when you (whistles)
Brings out the best in me when you (whistles)
Show your expertise
When the night always ends with a fight I’m excited
That you are the best in me

I like it when you (whistles)
Can I have some please of that (whistles)
Satisfy my needs
Sometimes I fake that I hate you and make up
So you are the best in me

I dreamt that you were on a train
And you were leaving, you were leaving
Made me think of what I’d miss
Do you believe it, you believe it

I don’t mind it when you (whistles)
Brings out the best in me when you (whistles)
Show your expertise
When the night always ends with a fight I’m excited
That you are the best in me (?)

I like it when you (whistles)
Can I have some please of that (whistles)
Take off your skinny jeans
Sometimes I fake that I hate you and make up
So you are the best in me

I dreamed that you were on a train
And you were leaving, you were leaving

    Great song, just heard it for the first time today on Chris Evans show on BBC Radio 2. Some corrections for the lyrics if you would like them:

    Verse 2 line 4: “With just one quality”
    Chorus lines 5 and 10: “That you’ll wind up next to me”

    Regards,
