Uh Huh

  • Does she wake up, put on make-up in the bathroom
    And go to work, and stay real late and text you she'll be back soon?
    But her boss runs his fingers 'round her pretty blonde platinum 'do
    I bet you never thought about that, did you?

    And it's none of my business
    And I don't wanna get involved
    If you're thinking that she's good
    I think you should be told

    She's got you on your knees like a little boy
    Everybody sees that you're just a little toy
    She's got a boxful that her daddy likely bought
    She asks you if you love her, and you nod and say "uh huh"

    She wears short skirts so you don't ask her if you can check her phone
    Talk about the guys at work so you feel ego-central
    Like fancy cars and football teams and she like continental
    With a European accent does she speak, oh so gentle

    And it's none of my business
    And I don't wanna get involved
    If you're thinking that she's good
    God no, God no

    She's got you on your knees like a little boy
    Everybody sees that you're just a little toy
    She's got a boxful that her daddy likely bought
    She asks you if you love her, and you nod and say "uh huh"

    She's got you where it hurts but you don't seem to see
    That while she's out at work, she's doing what you did to me
    She's got you where it hurts but you don't seem to see
    That while she's out at work, she's doing what you did to me

    She's got you on your knees like a little boy
    Everybody sees that you're just a little toy
    She's got a boxful that her daddy likely bought
    She asks you if you love her, and you nod and say "uh huh"
    She asks you if you love her, and you nod and say "uh huh"
    She asks you if you love her, and you nod and say "uh huh" Writer/s: Jade Elizabeth Bird
