Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now ya come 'round knock on my door
I dont know who you think I am
And what chya, what ya heard before
But I ain't down for no crazy games and your downright gypsy ways
Take your lies and all your things and take em right back from where ya came
Every night that you've been gone I've been sitting right here alone now
I ain't down for no crazy games and your downright gypsy ways
Take your lies and all your things and take em right back from where ya came now
And I can't love you now
You make it much too hard
And you must have figured out that things are gonna change
And I cant love you now
You make it much too hard
You must have figured out that things are gonna change tonight
All of the things that you said,
None of them meant a thing
You told your lies a hundred times
Just so you could have your way
No I ain't down for no crazy games and those goddamn gypsy ways
Take your lies and all your things and take em right back from where ya came girl
And I can't love you now
You made it much to hard
You must have figured out that things are gonna change
And I cant love you now
You make it much too hard
You must have figured out that things are gonna change tonight
It's been two weeks since I've heard from you
Now ya come 'round knock on my door
I don't know who you think I am
And what chya, what ya heard before
But I ain't down for those crazy games and those goddamn gypsy ways
Take your lies and all your things and take em right back from where ya came now
I said I can't love you now
You made it much to hard
You must have figured out that things are gonna change
Cause I cant love you now
You make it much to hard
You must have figured out that things are gonna change tonight
Are gonna change tonight
They're gonna change tonight
They're gonna change tonight

Line by Line Meaning
It's been two weeks since I've heard from you
It has been a fortnight since you have contacted me
Now ya come 'round knock on my door
Now you have come knocking on my door
I dont know who you think I am
I am unsure what persona you believe me to be
And what chya, what ya heard before
I am curious as to what rumors you have heard about me
But I ain't down for no crazy games and your downright gypsy ways
I am not interested in participating in any deceitful tactics or in your stereotypical behavior as a wanderer
Take your lies and all your things and take em right back from where ya came
Return all of your falsehoods and belongings to the place you originated
Every night that you've been gone I've been sitting right here alone now
During the entirety of your absence, I have remained in the same location by myself
Waiting for the phone to ring to tell me that your coming home
Anticipating a phone call informing me of your arrival back home
And I can't love you now
I am incapable of loving you at this moment
You make it much too hard
Your actions and words have made loving you exceedingly difficult
And you must have figured out that things are gonna change
You must be aware that changes are inevitable
All of the things that you said, None of them meant a thing
Everything that you said was meaningless
You told your lies a hundred times Just so you could have your way
You repeated your falsehoods countless times to manipulate the situation in your favor
No I ain't down for no crazy games and those goddamn gypsy ways
I refuse to participate in any manipulative behavior or abide by the stereotype of a wandering lifestyle
Take your lies and all your things and take em right back from where ya came girl
Retrieve your falsehoods and belongings and depart from whence you came
And I cant love you now
I am unable to love you at the moment
You make it much too hard
Your actions and words have made loving you exceedingly difficult
You must have figured out that things are gonna change tonight
You must realize that changes will occur this evening
Are gonna change tonight
Modifications will take place this evening
They're gonna change tonight
They will transform this evening
They're gonna change tonight
They will alter this evening

Insane group!!! A bassist who doesn't have chops, he has mudflaps...add to that a tamborine queen and Jonathan Tyler is indeed a force to be reckoned with.
