Topic: The Finest Lady is a Mess

When you leave my house
And walk down the street
Finally checking your phone
Cause you’re away from me
Do you ever stop to tell yourself
“She is the finest lady I’ll ever meet”?
Cause I am.
I’m a looker and I’m smart
And I’ve got person-al-ity
I’m patient and I’ve got heart
And lots of boys want me.
I’ve got class, I’ve got style
And I’m terribly funny
So don’t you dare ever not want me.
Don’t you dare ever not want me.
I pull the blanket tightly over my face
Cause I’m pissed off that the door is cracked
Boasting that you’ve left now
And you’re probably not coming back
But I’m okay on my own.
I have my records, candles, and wine
And I’m the messiest person I’m sure you know
But so what, all of this stuff is mine
And if you don’t adore me
Then go away
Cause my insecurities don’t afford me
Any severance pay
For when my heart breaks
And my castle crumbles
I know what you’re about to say:
I should be more humble
And you’re saying it sarcastically
Cause for once, I’m telling the truth
And if history repeats itself
That will scare the **** out of you
And you’ll leave my ghostly room
You’ll find some random excuse
You’ll have something important to do
Your tongue will be tied and mine will be loose
So let me put mine in your mouth
See if I can’t help sort you out
So you can speak clearer, repeating what you just said
I’m the finest lady you’ve ever met
