After All This Lyrics by Jay Brannan

2014

[Verse 1]
You're a beautiful man
Was cool to hold you
Thought I could have you
Boy was I wrong
It was a dirty plan
It's time someone told you
You don't hold the world
In the palm of your hand
[Pre-Chorus]
It must feel freaky to be so sneaky
I guess you thought I'd never know
The one you loved had split
And he kinda liked my shit
So you booked yourself a private show
[Chorus]
I know I'm nothing special
I've never been the best
But there are thoughts in my head
And a thump in my chest
I'm a little embarrassed
Was this part of your plan?
I'm not a cardboard cutout
Just a lonely man
Whose heart is aching
You're the reason why
So aftеr all this, did you at least get your guy?
[Verse 2]
We had a fеw good laughs
Talked for a while and
Walked 'round the island
Hands intertwined
I also lied to you
Said I liked your tattoo
I was only trying
To be kind
[Pre-Chorus]
You rose up from the east
And set into a jest
Was joking at its worst
And trickery at best
Now I have come to see
The big punchline was me
Your magic carpet, just a vehicle for jealousy
[Chorus]
I know I'm nothing special
I've never been the best
But there are thoughts in my head
And a thump in my chest
I'm a little embarrassed
Is this part of your plan?
I'm not a cardboard cutout
Just a lonely man
Whose heart is aching
You're the reason why
So after all this, did you at least get your guy?
[Chorus]
I know I'm nothing special
I've never been the best
But there are thoughts in my head
And a thump in my chest
I'm a little embarrassed
Is this part of your plan?
I'm not a cardboard cutout
Just a lonely man
Whose heart is aching
You're the reason why
So after all this, did you at least get your guy?
[Chorus]
I know I'm nothing special
I've never been the best
But there are thoughts in my head
And a thump in my chest
I'm a little embarrassed
Is this part of your plan?
I'm not a cardboard cutout
Just a lonely man
Whose heart is aching
You're the reason why
So after all this, did you at least get your guy?
[Outro]
So tell me baby, did you at least get your guy?
After all this, did you at least get your guy?
