Overdue Lyrics

[Verse One: ZZ Ward]
Open up your dirty eyes, look what you did
Let me see your filthy hands, I caught ‘em red
I can smell the bullshit on your breath
Got it written from your toes to your neck
Baby, let the venom sink into your chest
Trying to play me like a pawn, that’s what you get
Get up off your knees, bitch, no need to beg
I don’t want you back, back, I don’t want you back
Better hit the road, road like your name was Jack
Call me on the phone, phone, I won’t call you back
You should be alone, how do you like that?
Laugh it off boy, I’m a lunatic, laugh it all the way
Till the truth sinks in, laugh it off boy
Till your teeth fall out, till your head just breaks
Till your eyes fall down, down, down

[Hook]
It’s over to the left, over to the right
Over through the day, over through the night
I’m over, over, over you, boy, this over’s overdue
It’s over to the left, over to the right
Over through the day, over through the night
I’m over, over, over you, boy, this over’s overdue

[Outro]
It’s over to the left, over to the right
Over through the day, over through the night
I’m over, over, over you, boy, this over’s overdue
It’s over to the left, over to the right
Over through the day, over through the night
I’m over, over, over you, boy, this over’s overdue
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I’m over, over, over you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
