[Verse 1]
I've been bending over backwards just to make you feel like you're wanted
Oh, I use up all my energy just to make sure that you know you're important
And I know that I'm not helping, I just get so insecure
And you always make me guilty just for wanting something more

[Chorus]
But what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, so what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, what have you done for me, lately?
Oh

[Verse 2]
I've been treading oh so lightly just to make sure that you're always on it
Oh, I use up all my energy just to make sure that you know you're important
And you never like how my song sounds, but you give nothing of yourself
And you look at me like something's wrong if I ever ask for help

[Chorus]
But what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, so what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, what have you done for me, lately?
Oh

[Bridge]
There's always something wrong, it must be my fault
We always got along, but not on my terms
When they sing along, well that was my song
And I guess no one's ever told you no, what do you even want this for?

[Chorus]
So what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, so what have you done for me, lately?
Oh, what have you done for me, lately?
Oh

[Outro]
So what have you done for me?
What have you done for me?
What have you done for me, lately?
Oh
