  • Oh, he treats me with respect
    He says he loves me all the time
    He calls me fifteen times a day
    He likes to make sure that I'm fine
    You know I've never met a man
    Who's made me feel quite so secure
    He's not like all them other boys
    They're all so dumb and immature

    There's just one thing
    That's getting in the way
    When we go up to bed
    You're just no good
    It's such a shame
    I look into your eyes
    I want to get to know you
    And then you make this noise
    And it's apparent it's all over

    It's not fair
    And I think you're really mean
    I think you're really mean
    I think you're really mean
    Oh, you're supposed to care
    But you never make me scream
    You never make me scream

    Oh, it's not fair
    And it's really not okay
    It's really not okay
    It's really not okay
    Oh, you're supposed to care
    But all you do is take
    Yeah, all you do is take

    Oh, I lie here in the wet patch
    In the middle of the bed
    I'm feeling pretty damn hard done by
    I spent ages giving head
    Then I remember all the nice things
    That you've ever said to me
    Maybe I'm just overreacting
    Maybe you're the one for me

    There's just one thing
    That's getting in the way
    When we go up to bed
    You're just no good
    It's such a shame
    I look into your eyes
    I want to get to know you
    And then you make this noise
    And it's apparent it's all over

    It's not fair
    And I think you're really mean
    I think you're really mean
    I think you're really mean
    Oh, you're supposed to care
    But you never make me scream
    You never make me scream

    Oh it's not fair
    And it's really not okay
    It's really not okay
    It's really not okay
    Oh, you're supposed to care
    But all you do is take
    Yeah, all you do is take

    There's just one thing
    That's getting in the way
    When we go up to bed
    You're just no good
    It's such a shame
    I look into your eyes
    I want to get to know you
    And then you make this noise
    And it's apparent it's all over

    It's not fair
    And I think you're really mean
    I think you're really mean
    I think you're really mean
    Oh, you're supposed to care
    But you never make me scream
    You never make me scream

    Oh, it's not fair
    And it's really not okay
    It's really not okay
    It's really not okay
    Oh, you're supposed to care
    But all you do is take
    Yeah, all you do is take Writer/s: Gregory Allen Kurstin, Lily Rose Beatrice Allen
