I Want My Book Back Lyrics by Shortly

2020

[Verse 1]
He says it was only for the Summer
Well, what's new
And he says that he’s changed
And he remembers everything about you
And you're still rocking it in yesterday's makeup
He says he loves it and he loves watching you
Wake up slow in the morning
But it’s never long
'Til it's just you and your cell phone
Looking for a ride home again
[Chorus 1]
You say you're down and you'll probably bring a friend
If it's a girl he'll probably understand
I'm so sick of stupid soft boys
I’m so sick of midnight goodnight texts
This time you fucked up
Yeah, you’ll remember me
As the one who ruins everything
[Verse 2]
He drinks and he smokes a bit too much
Well, what's new
And he says, well, he swears his ex is crazy
And he could never hurt you
He says he hates everything about her
But maybe he just hates watching people get hurt
Over and over ’cause it's always him
Walking girls in circles like dogs
Pockets empty again
[Chorus 2]
You say you're down and you'll probably bring a friend
He’ll like her too much 'cause she's in a band
I'm so sick of stupid soft boys
I'm so sick of midnight goodnight texts
This time you fucked up
Yeah, you'll remember me
As the one who ruins
You met his parents and everything
That's not how things work
Need I remind him you're only seventeen
Thinking if you're drinking maybe it could all be your fault
No baby, you deserve love
Baby, you deserve it all
[Outro]
You say you're down and you'll probably bring a friend
He'll like her too much
