Tell Me I'm Pretty Lyrics

I should've listened

When they told us all in school

That the boys loved girls

While I looked at you

So why don't you tell me

I'm pretty

Like we're just friends

The way other girls

Give out casual compliments

And why don't you kiss me

And we can play pretend

Like you won't break my heart

In the morning

And call me your friend

You swear nothing happened

But I know the truth

You told all your friends

About the things that we do

And did I really look like I could hurt you?

Or did they lie about the colour blue?

So why don't you tell me

I'm pretty

Like we're just friends

The way other girls

Give out casual compliments

And why don't you kiss me

And we can play pretend

Like you won't break my heart

In the morning

And call me your friend

We can pretend that this is some

Twisted form of fucked up friendship

Something made up just for them

A watered down something

I'll be complacent

You keep me waiting

Let's pretend

So why don't you tell me

I'm pretty

Like we're just friends

The way other girls

Give out casual compliments

So why don't you kiss me

And we can play pretend

Like you won't break my heart

In the morning

When you call me your friend
