[Verse 1]
At home, Sitting in my favorite nook
My girl's trying to get me eat some dinner she cooked
I'm reading a book girl, I'm reading a book
Don't you ever interrupt me while i'm reading a book
On the shoulder, I got pulled over
Pigs trynna get me, Roll my window lower
I'm reading a book pig, I'm reading a book
Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
[Pre-Chorus]
Why are all these people always interrupting me?
What i gotta do to try to make them see?
[Chorus]
(Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book)
I'm reading a book, I'm reading a book
Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
(Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book)
I'm reading a book, I'm reading a book
Don't you, Don't you ever, Ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
[Verse 2]
I'm at the library, where they call me a crook
I never even pay for my library books
I take them from the shelf, And if anyone looks i say
I'm reading a book man, I'm reading a book
At a stupid birthday party for some stupid kid
Take a book from a present, That was supposed to be his
Now I'm 'bout to find out what happens to Captain Hook
Cause I'm reading your book kid, I'm reading your book
[Pre-Chorus]
Why are all these people always interrupting me?
What i gotta do to try to make them see?
[Chorus]
(Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book)
I'm reading a book, I'm reading a book
Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
(Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book)
I'm reading a book, I'm reading a book
Don't you, Don't you ever, Ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
[Bridge]
If you ever interrupt me, You can bet you're gonna see
The nasty me, The nasty me, The nasty me
[Chorus]
(Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book)
I'm reading a book, I'm reading a book
Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
(Don't you ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book)
I'm reading a book, I'm reading a book
Don't you, Don't you ever, Ever interrupt me while I'm reading a book
