Better Than Nothing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Dear me,
How could I forget?
Is it your time of month again?
Just a manic episode
Running through you like an electrode
No dent in your piggy bank,
But you're too frugal to feel ashamed.
Never even pay me back,
You should just be happy that you have a nice six pack.
One, two, three, four
How long does the list go?
You're no prince charming
But you're better than nothing.
Wah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Better than nothing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
Wah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Better than nothing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
Buy me jack, drive me to drink
You're a California girl always talk before you think
Got me running in circles, impossible to please
Got me eating vegan you're obsessed with what you eat
Getting manis and pedis to keep my nails clean
So take a step back girl, I'll give you what you need
Just so you remember we can play together
I'm a man not a boy so I never say never
May I offer you a brush?
Also you really should learn to flush
You dance like your granny did
And when you drive you drive like her husband
Trust me, you better believe
I know about your every single tactic, tickity-tac
Like counting down the minutes before you can text me back
Five, six, seven, eight
Just so you can get this straight
You're no prince charming
But you're better than nothing
Wah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Better than nothing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
Wah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Better than nothing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
Forget the text back, I'll write you a note
Fifty two in a deck, I'm the only joke.
Free pasta on wednesdays, split us a coke.
Hold your purse in public while you shop on the phone
But you like the way I spit and the way that it flows
My ego's pumped up and my bass down low
Wear my favorite wife-beater and you still want more?
So come here baby, you drive me crazy
Wise man told me love is unfair
Wonder if he's even been there
Call me crazy or deranged but
You are just the same.
Wah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Better than nothing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
Wah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Better than nothing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
Wise man told me love is unfair
Wonder if he's even been there
Call me crazy
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-woh-woh)
Call me crazy
Yeah you're better than nothing, than nothing
