Circle The Drain

Katy Perry

Lyrics of Circle The Drain by Katy Perry

Verse

"This is the last time," you say

After the last line, you break

It′s not even a holiday

Nothin' to celebrate (′brate, 'brate, 'brate)

Verse

You give a hundred reasons why

And say you′re really gonna try

If I had a nickel for every time

I′d own the bank (bank, bank, bank)

Pre-chorus

Thought that I was the exception

I could rewrite your addiction

You could've been the greatest

But you′d rather get wasted

Chorus

You fall asleep during foreplay

'Cause the pills you take are more your forté

I′m not stickin' around to watch you go down (down)

Wanna be your lover, not your fuckin′ mother

Can't be your savior, I don't have the power

I′m not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain

Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain

Verse

You say it helps you write your rhymes

Whatever helps you sleep at night

You′ve become what you despise

A stereotype-type-type-type

Verse

You think you're so rock ′n' roll

But you′re really just a joke

Had the world in the palm of your hands

But you fuckin' choked

Pre-chorus

Should′ve been my teammate

Could've changed your fate

You say that you love me

You won't remember in the morning

Chorus

You fall asleep during foreplay

′Cause the pills you take are more your forté

I′m not stickin' around to watch you go down (oh-oh)

Wanna be your lover, not your fuckin′ mother

Can't be your savior, I don′t have the power

I'm not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain

Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain

Chorus

You fall asleep during foreplay

′Cause the pills you take are more your forte

I'm not stickin' around (I′m not stickin′ around)

To watch you go down (I'm not stickin′ around)

Wanna be your lover, not your fuckin' mother

Can′t be your savior, I don't have the power

I′m not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain

Watch you circle the drain, watch you circle the drain

Hook

Watch you circle the drain

Watch you circle the drain

Hook

You're goin' down, you′re goin′ down

You're goin′ down, you're goin′ down, down, down

Outro

You fall asleep during foreplay

'Cause the pills you take are more your forté

I′m not stickin' around to watch you go down
