Bad Date: A Fool Waiting On The Right Block by Melodie Yvonne
You think you’re just as slick as motherfuckin’ Pee-wee Herman
Goin’ to the movies with his big ole jug of Jergens
But really what you don’t know is you’re nothin’ but a player
Chokin’ out your next commander like you’re motherfuckin’ Vadar
You think you’re extra tasty like a chili cheese burrito
But you sure ain’t seen spicy ’til you get a load of me though
You make excuses sayin’ that you need to tend your fire
But I guess you just ain’t nothing but a motherfuckin’ liar
You treat me like I’m worthless, but you’ll miss me when it’s over
You think you got me on a leash, but you’re no Casanova
I finally see the truth in you and this is what I see
I don’t deserve none of your shit and you don’t deserve me
You’re driftin’ through this life all full of pride and unaware
You’re actin’ like a toddler somehow confident AND scared
You puff up big & brave, but tell the truth you wouldn’t dare
What you did was really hurt me like you never even cared
I’m holier than thou, but you’re so blindly narcissistic
You throw out your opinions like you’re Weiner sendin’ dick pics
It’s gettin’ old real fast and I’m not gonna take your shit
One day soon I will be over you and maybe it’ll stick
You treat me like I’m worthless, but you’ll miss me when it’s over
You think you got me on a leash, but you’re no Casanova
I finally see the truth in you and this is what I see
I don’t deserve none of your shit and you don’t deserve me
You act like you’re the greatest of them all, but I’m not useless
You think you’re smart as Stephen Hawking, but you’re really clueless
It’s gettin’ old real fast and I’m not gonna take your shit
One day soon I will be over you and you can suck my clit
You treat me like I’m worthless, but you’ll miss me when it’s over
You think you got me on a leash, but you’re no Casanova
I finally see the truth in you and this is what I see
I don’t deserve none of your shit and you don’t deserve me
Yeah, I don’t deserve none of your shit and you don’t deserve me
