  • Life isn't quite what I thought I'd be
    When I was a kid on VoIP
    I thought when I get older
    I'd marry her, I told her
    Now I'm twenty-six and I work in an office
    Nine 'til five's not the best, I'll be honest
    If I could change a single thing
    I'd make it me and not him

    But he's in your bed, I'm in your Twitch chat
    I've got the key and he's just a doormat
    And even though he's got social skills
    That doesn't mean I can't pay the bills
    Anyway, make the most of him
    'Cause she moves on pretty bloody quick, oh-oh
    Your new boyfriend's an arsehole
    (Woo)

    Yeah, I've met Jared (of course, I've met Jared)
    The one who took you away from me
    You hit it off instantly
    I know, 'cause you won't stop telling me
    I've seen his jawline, shoulders, and muscles
    Push against his fashion sense
    I've thought about what he looks like nude
    I'm not gay, though

    'Cause she's living the dream (living the dream, living the dream)
    Oh, she's living the dream
    From back when we were seventeen
    She's living the dream (living the dream, living the dream)
    Oh, she's living the dream
    From back when we were seventeen

    How on earth could I be saved?
    When I'm one click away from insane
    I just think that I deserve
    A little bit of what I earned
    I'm not gonna make another scene
    The one I made when I was twenty-three
    Means I'm not allowed in Disney World

    But he's in your bed and I'm in your Twitch chat
    I've got the key and he's just a doormat
    'Cause even though he's got social skills
    That doesn't mean I can't pay the bills
    Anyway, make the most of him
    'Cause she moves on pretty bloody quick, oh-oh
    Your new boyfriend's an arsehole

    I think about you every day (every day)
    So how on earth can I be saved? (can I be saved?)
    I think about him a lot as well (I think about him)
    Maybe if he wasn't fine as hell (he's really fine as hell)
    'Cause you're beauty
    And you're grace (and you're grace)
    Your telephone calls are my favorite place
    And I want you to notice me
    With no restraining order, please (Jason Derulo)
    Want you to care
    Want to smell your hair Writer/s: William Gold
