[Verse 1]
If it were up to me
I’d turn you into a stone
And turn the lights down low for effect
And I’d steal your cigarettes and I'd be
Softer than I am through cigarette smoke
And if anybody asks, I'll say I did it as a joke, so
But how about his loneliness, he gets it from his mom
100 dollars for his haircut, but a smile from God
And when he touches you you’ll wonder how he keeps his hands so soft
He got some money from his grandma
Guess he’ll never have a job
[Chorus 1]
Oh pretty boy (pretty boy)
Don’t speak (don't speak)
You pretty boys (pretty boys)
Are only good for one thing (for one thing)
[Verse 2]
But anyways
That isn’t even what I meant to say
I meant to sing a song to you to make you fall asleep
And I wouldn’t have to talk to you and you wouldn’t talk to me
But I could lay on top of you and soak in all your heat
Don’t let them catch you crying, boy, if it didn’t really hurt
She took a drink to jog her memory but it didn’t really work
She meant to sing a song but couldn’t memorize the words
She only knew the chorus she had to mumble through the verse
[Chorus 2]
Oh pretty boy (pretty boy)
Don’t think (don't think)
You pretty boys (pretty boys)
Are only good for one thing (for one thing)
