You Don't
A CRAY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the night long
And you know
Know that's wrong
What's a matter, baby?
Don't you even care?
You drink
And you're out there high
Skied up on that coke
Hey, baby
Don't you even care?
You took my credit cards
Driving around in my car, too
You checked into some hotel room, now baby
What are you out there trying to prove?
Please bring it home
Don't leave this young man
Don't you leave him all alone
Baby, you wrong
Don't you even care?
Mmmm
Baby, you took all my credit cards
Driving around in my car, too
You checked into the Motel 6, baby
What are you out there trying to prove?
Please, bring it home
Don't leave this young man
Don't you leave him all alone
Baby, you wrong
Don't you even care?
Baby, you know that's wrong
Don't you even care?
Baby, you know that's wrong
Don't you even care?
Baby, you wrong
Don't you even care?
Baby, you wrong
I want my money back
The lyrics to A CRAY's song "You Don't" are a plea to a significant other who is engaging in destructive behavior. The song starts by noting the person's nighttime activities and calls them out on knowing that what they are doing is wrong. The song then goes on to describe the person's substance abuse and reckless behavior, such as using the writer's credit cards and car to check into a motel. Throughout the song, the writer pleads with their partner to come home and not leave them alone, saying that their behavior is wrong and asking whether they even care about the pain they are causing.
Reading between the lines, the song seems to be about the singer's struggle with a partner who is addicted to drugs and engaging in self-destructive behavior. The repeated pleas for the partner to come home suggest that they may have abandoned the singer, leaving them feeling isolated and helpless. The repeated refrain of "baby, you wrong, don't you even care?" is a reminder that even though the partner may be consumed by their addiction, they are still responsible for the pain they cause to those around them.
Overall, "You Don't" is a powerful song about the impact of addiction on relationships. It paints a vivid portrait of the pain and frustration of watching someone you love succumb to self-destructive behavior, and the sense of isolation that comes from feeling powerless to help them.
