Self Esteem

 

La, la, la la la, la, la, la la la

 

I wrote her off for the tenth time today

And practiced all the things I would say

But she came over, I lost my nerve

I took her back and made her dessert

 

Oh, I know I’m being used

That’s okay, man, ‘cause I like the abuse

I know she’s playing with me

That’s okay, ‘cause I got no self esteem

 

Oh way oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

 

We make plans to go out at night

I wait till two, then I turn out the light

This rejection’s got me so low

If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

 

Oh way oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

 

When she’s saying, oh that she wants only me

Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

When she’s saying, oh that I’m like a disease

Then I wonder how much more I can stand

Well, I guess I should stick up for myself

But I really think it’s better this way

The more you suffer, the more it shows you really care

Right?

Yeah!

 

Now, I’ll relate this little bit

It happens more than I’d like to admit

Late at night she knocks on my door

She’s drunk again and looking to score

 

Now, I know I should say no

But it’s kind of hard when she’s ready to go

I may be dumb, but I’m not a dweeb

I’m just a sucker with no self esteem

 

Oh way oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah

 

When she’s saying, oh that she wants only me

Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

When she’s saying, oh that I’m like a disease

Then I wonder how much more I can stand

Well, I guess I should stick up for myself

But I really think it’s better this way

The more you suffer, the more it shows you really care

Yeah!
