Selfish
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.
I'm gonna stop being the one who's always left behind
Gonna get a little selfish and rude this time
If you got a problem with what I'm about to be
Pack your bags, there's the door and put your boots on
If you mean to go
Then you better go (go go go!)
It's time for me,
To get my dreams
refren':
I don't have to be the one who has to see
'Cause I don't need to choose
How to share my life, who to say goodnight
Who to read the news to
I'll take it as it comes, all the bad and fun
Day by day I'll learn
When the reaper comes with a loaded gun
I'll be ready for love
I ain't gonna be the one who always has to pay the bills
Ain't gonna be the one who settles for the cheap thrills
From this day on it will be me, myself, my kind and I
Who'll be searching for a pleasure of the physical kind
If you wanna go
Then you better go (go go go!)
It's time for me,
To get my dreams
refren'
I'll be ready for love
refren'
I'll be ready for love
Yeah I'll be ready for love
