Saturday out in WeHo
I saw a trio and
"Oh you a fire sign? Damn, well I'm a Leo"
"Guess we compatible just like a hand in glove"
She said "That's a The Smiths song"
"Wait, that's the band I love"
(I've never heard of them)
But then she got to flirting, I guess
I was saying the right things, she start to vent 'bout her ex
And how he lied about shit and she felt manipulated
I told her I'm different than any guy that she's ever dated
(I'm not)
The other one to her right was looking my type
Hair done and her skin reflect in the bright lights
Damn, I think I need her
Gotta act like I don't care, but that's on the contrary
'Cause I'm like
(Like what?)
Sayin' all the places I fly, but I don't wanna flaunt (Uh)
Ain't even tell her that she fine
It's all a part of my facade (Okay)
Said she heard of me, I knew that she had
Barely pay her any attention now she want it so bad
I'm sayin' (Uh, uh)
I feel my pride is in the way
And that's okay
'Cause you can't read my mind by the things that I say
If I take it all away
I'm afraid you won't stay
Then I guess I'm nothing original
She grabs my hand, it's going according to plan
I hit the can, come back, she talking with my friend, man
About my likes, she said she like me and all
My friend laughed, "He's not like that at all"
(What?)
She seems pressed
Pushed my chest, said I'm just like her ex
I said, "It's not like that, girl, test me"
Said, "Let's see"
"You said you love The Smiths' songs, but can you name two?"
"Uh?"
She said she knew it was to good to be true, fuck
(Hol' up)
All eyes on me now, I'm outta luck (Uh, uh)
Bet they're getting twisted, they don't know who to trust (Yeah)
Started saying all of the wrong things, I'm making shit up like
"I let my friends borrow my Benz truck"
Damn, it isn't landing
Gave me a glance, her eyebrows were dancin' (What?)
Face hit my hands, then she said
"You're all that and then some, short, wasian, and handsome"
"But I don't want a man that be lying in all his answers"
I feel my pride is in the way
And that's okay
'Cause you can't read my mind by the things that I say
If I take it all away
I'm afraid you won't stay
Then I guess I'm nothing original
Can't you tell, I can't fake it well (Can't fake it well)
I know you see right through me, baby, don't you?
But I don't know how I can stay myself (Can't stay myself)
Rather be someone else than be found out (Yeah)
I feel my pride is in the way
And that's okay
'Cause you can't read my mind by the things that I say
If I take it all away
I'm afraid you won't stay
Then I guess I'm nothing original
(Guess I'm, guess I'm)
