Written after a series of worsening Tinder dates...I was inspired one night while recounting the most recent one. Pen met paper and this song was born.
Lyrics
Did you think that I would love you
Just because you’re accustomed to
Pretty women falling at your feet?
Pretty women that’ll do anything...
Did you think I’d sit there and listen
Nod my head and tell you that you’re f’n brilliant
All the while I’m biting my tongue
Keep from saying
God you’re so dumb
Why do I waste my time?
Why don’t I speak my mind?
Why would I settle
For the bottom of the barrel
When I can have the best?
I said it once
I’ll say it twice
I’m getting really good at goodbyes
When you said “check please”
I’ve never felt more relieved
I had to get away
From your predatory ways
Did you know I’d keep my distance
Using up all my resistance
To stay out of reach?
To keep you from creeping in
Why do I waste my time?
Why don’t I speak my mind?
Why would I settle
For the bottom of the barrel
When I can have the best?
I said it once I’ll say it twice
I’m getting good at goodbyes
