[Verse 1]
So I met this girl
I was mindin' my own and she waltz right over to grab my phone and she said
"So what? You're just gonna sit there all night feelin' sorry for yourself?
See I've been eyein' you up the whole night from across the room
So what? You need a cosmic boom?
To get your attention?
And did I happen to mention?
My drink's been empty the past five minutes
So can I fill you in the general convention?"
I said, "Look, you know, I just got out of some messy shit, you know
I'm not really lookin' to start somethin'"
And she said, "Woah
Who said I was lookin' to start somethin'?
See I could tell by the holes in your clothes that you're loaded and
I'm a bit of a gold digger
Gunnin' for gold liquor
Maybe even that old number seven
Matter fact, a glass a that'd be heaven
Heaven's a place on the rocks with a twist a lemon
And did I happen to mention?
My drink's been empty the past ten minutes
So can I fill you in the general convention"
I said, "Huh, that's very cute. You don't have a boyfriend or somethin' do you?"
And she said, "Woah, now look who's eager
Look who's lookin' to dive a little bit deeper
Look who's lookin' me up and down
You're quick to switch from a frown
How quickly you broke your promise of playin' the sad clown
I know your type"
Yeah, what's that?
"You're arrogantly modest, probably into your rap
You're probably good with the women, spinnin' your cynical facts
Sippin' your Guinness in solace and intellectual slacks
Bet you say you're shy but you love the attention
That pitiful player act is lackin' dimension
Speakin' of lackin', what am I speakin' in? Latin?
Maybe I didn't say it
Or did I happen to mention?
My drink's been empty the past fifteen minutes
So can I fill you in the general convention?"
[Interlude]
I said alright
I said okay
I said alright
I said okay
I said alright
I said okay
I said alright
I said okay
I said alright
I said okay

[Verse 2]
And I looked at the bartender and I was like, "Hey"
Gimme Guinness and a Bacardi and Coke
Lookin' for spinach, then I started to spoke
Speak-speak with a stutter on different strokes
She could tell I was nervous, then she started to spoke, speak
And she said
She said
And she said
She said
"Don't spend too long believin' you're not whole
Believe you're half of a person losin' half of your soul
You're losin' half of your love and you're hatin' twice as much
Self-love's fucked, you question if you're enough
Spendin' all your time worried 'bout your other half and
What's the point in that if they don't want you back?
How long you gonna sit at that fuckin bar stool
Lettinn 'em kill you?
Now where's the fuckin sense in that?
I'm no a stranger to the pain I know how we hurt
I've seen both sides of someone doin' the dirt
Man, I've lived both lives, you know what I like best?
Is the love you get the minute you start lovin' yourself"
[Interlude]
And she said
She said
She said
She said
She said, "I've lived both lives, you know what I like best?
It's the type of love you get when you start lovin' yourself"
And she said
She said
She said
She said
She said, "I've lived both lives, you know what I like best?
It's the type of love you get when you start lovin' yourself"
And she said
She said
She said
She said
She said, "I've lived both lives, you know what I like best?
It's the type of love you get when you start lovin' yourself"
And she said
She said
She said
She said
She said, "I've lived both lives, you know what I like best?
It's the type of love you get when you start, ayy
[Outro]
And we danced the whole night 'til bright ended in laughter
Had me hook line and hangin' off of the rafters
Who the fuck cares about happy ever after
When I have enough for a taxi to get us back to the afters?
Who needs a happy ever afters?
I got happy for the moment, that'll do
Split the queue, you and me, cue laughter
Roll on snare drum
And it's curtains, ayy
And it's curtains, ayy
And it's curtains, ayy
Yeah, it's curtains, ayy
