Lyrics Bo Burnham – The Breakup Song

Spoken:
I can remember the conversation like it was yesterday. She came out of the shower, her hair wet, her shoulders wet. It’s was a shower. It was water. She turned to me and she said it… She said:

Girl:
It’s over

Bo:
And then I said
EAT A DICK
EAT A DICK
EAT A FUCKING DICK, LIKE THIS!
PUT ON YOUR DICK EATING GLOVES!
GET READY TO GOBBLE A DICK UP!
IF YOU DON’T LIKE THIS DICK, SITCH
EAT A DICK, BITCH

I think I made the right decision

Girl:
Okay, you’re angry
I can see that
But you don’t need to make this harder than it has to be
I try to speak to you
But you won’t listen—

Bo:
EAT A DICK

Girl:
Hold on, please just let me f—

Bo:
EAT A DICK

Girl:
Oh my God
Honestly, are you fucking five?
I’m tryna talk this out, you refuse to even listen to me
Stutters
I’m saying how I’m feeling. OK?
And then you’re saying «eat a dick» over and over again.
Does that seem mature to you?

Bo:
NO IT DOESN’T
BUT SEE I THINK THE ISSUE IS
I’VE GOT MY FATHER’S TEMPER
AND I’M EMOTIONALLY INARTICULATE
SO RATHER THAN BEING HONEST AND VULNERABLE
I DID A QUICK SWITCH
BECAUSE I’M HURTING INSIDE
I’M TRYING TO HIDE IT, SO

Crying:
EAT A DICK, BITCH
EAT A DICK, BITCH

Voice breaking:
I thought we had a future together, you fucking whore.

Girl:
I didn’t think you’d cry for me
I didn’t think you cared
I thought you were lashing out in anger
But now I see you’re scared
I’m scared, too
Maybe we can work this out
And not break up

Bo:
Really?

Girl:
NO, LICK MY CLIT
LICK MY MOTHERFUCKING CLIT
YOU THINK THREE LOUSY TEARS
OFFSETS THREE YEARS OF SHIT
I DESERVE BETTER THAN YOU
GET ME WETTER THAN SCREW
SORRY YOU’RE NOT WHAT I NEED, HUN
LICK THIS CLIT THEN LEAVE, SON
