Wait, they don’t love you like I love you

Artist- Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Song of the day- Maps

So I've spent the majority of the last couple of days in my car attempting to decipher GPS maps, iphone maps, google maps, and state maps often leading to longer ways, wrong ways or right ways with lots of traffic. However this morning the pain was a bit eased by my rediscovery of this album as I screamed along to Karen O whilst my probable annoyed passenger attempted sleep. But I shall forever cherish this slow jam as one of my top all time fav love songs, though I have no idea what it has to do with maps. Especially since I've grown to have more of a love / hate relationship with them after this weekend. Regardless, O's weird, raw emotion gets me every time when singing this chorus. And if you've ever felt the same, you'll fall in love with this song too.



Pack up;
I’m straight;
Enough;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say

Wait, they don’t love you like I love you; wait, they don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you.....

Lay off;
Don’t stray;
Well, my kind's,your kind;
I’ll stay the same!
Pack up;
Don’t stray;
Oh say, say, say;
Oh say, say, say!

Wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps!
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you …
(guitar solo)
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
And wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
And wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps!
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you …
