21 Lyrics by Caroline Reilly

2024

Mm-hm i don't like that


Why did he use me
Why did he use her
He tried to convince me that she's the abuser
But we all know the truth
He's whiny and has a screw loose

His dad is an asshole, they fought in the kitchen
But he doesn't know he's becoming just like him
And oh what a shame
I had to fake it every tme she'd stay

He has no money and his car is broken every week
He wants to hit on her while hе's still fucking 'round with me
He compensatеs with music but that doesn't work for me
'cause i can recognise a drummer who can't keep up with the beat

So embarrassing
He made a joke of me
Tried to bite my tongue but why should he have all the fun
He never shuts his mouth, i can't believe he's twenty one

He's says i'm not hot but look in the mirror
He looks like an addict who just lost his dealer
He's a red flag in itself
He'll lose his job and blame everyone else
His girl was so pretty but then he betrayed her
He loves playing victim, now i look like a jester
From believing all the lies
His mommy holds him while he cries through the night

His dad is an asshole, they fought in the kitchen
But he doesn't know he's becoming just like him
And oh what a shame
I had to fake it every tme she'd stay

He has no money and his car is broken every week
He wants to hit on her while he's still fucking 'round with me
He compensates with music but that doesn't work for me
'cause i can recognise a drummer who can't keep up with the beat

So embarrassing
He made a joke of me
Tried to bite my tongue but why should he have all the fun
He never shuts his mouth, i can't believe he's twenty one he worked

With her, he worked with him
Another name drop for the win
I close my eyes, i'm getting bored
Is that the, is the the band that got coffee for
He needs a girl to feel like a man
Oh how pathetic can he get

So take the punch to see what he's got
You can't ask, you can't ask
A girl to make him something that he's not
Why did he use me, why did her use her
I can't believe i didn't realise it sooner

His dad is an asshole, they fought in the kitchen
But he doesn't know he's becoming just like him
And oh what a shame
I had to fake it every tme she'd stay

He has no money and his car is broken every week
He wants to hit on her while he's still fucking 'round with me
He compensates with music but that doesn't work for me
'cause i can recognise a drummer who can't keep up with the beat

So embarrassing
He made a joke of me
Tried to bite my tongue but why should he have all the fun
He never shuts his mouth, i can't believe he's twenty one
