Opposites

Opposites

This song plays with the idea that opposites attract and the idea of one of the couple referring to the other as "my better half."

Some of these listed below aren't opposites at all, but I think that's part of the fun of it. This may come across as painful, but it is a love song.

C# G#
You’re black and white and I’m shades of gray
A# F#
You want it all now, I’m saving for a rainy day

You think you’re such a badass, I know you’re a softy
You think my ivory tower’s crumbling, I think it’s still lofty

Chorus:

You are perfect for me and I am perfect for you

Opposites, opposites, do they really attract?
Who is to say who is the better half?
Stop judging me. Why does it gotta be
Two sides of any coin? Tired of dichotomy.

You think I’m good looking and I don’t see it
I see something in you if you’d just try to be it

You think you’re so smart, I know I’m a genius
There’s nothing about this that’s convenient

Chorus

You think I’m illogical but you don’t understand
Intuition isn’t something you’re going to find in a man

I hate doing dishes, you hate it even more
You and your damn coupons and I’m keeping score

Chorus

Opposites, opposites, do they really attract?
Who is to say who is the better half?
Stop judging me. Why does it gotta be
Two sides of any coin? Tired of dichotomy.

You act without thinking. I think too much.
I like to drink but you drink too much.

You’re too honest, I like to lie
I drive you crazy I wish you would die

Chorus
