Kate Miller Heidke - I Like You Better When You're Not Around [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Long, long ago, in the years BC
The women used to gossip while they made their tea
It's been our method of survival, right from the start
But girl, you've really gone and turned it into an art
After I see you I feel dirty as hell
Like you've contaminated me with that peculiar smell
That comes from dishing up the dirt on all your closest friends
I mean like what the hell is with her, I mean, have no offense
So please, don't take it to heart
When I say can we start to spend time apart
But frankly my dear, this friendship is toxic
Like a fox and a hound
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
Don't wanna hear about your bitchy scene
And I don't really care who gave who what disease
As if don't even know you say just the same about me
Do you really think I'm that naive?
So please, don't take it to heart
If I say can we start to spend time apart
Cause frankly my dear, this friendship is toxic
Like a fox and a hound
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
I L-I-K-E you better when you are N-O-T around
I L-I-K-E you better when you are N-O-T around
I L-I-K-E you better, better, better
So please don't take it to heart
If I say can we start to spend time apart
Cause frankly my dear, this friendship is toxic
Like a fox and a hound
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
I like you, I like you, I like you better
I like you better when you're not around
