Lyrics

Confidence

[Verse 1]

You're confident

So confident

You're full of it

You're full of shit

But you see

[Verse 2]

You're confident

So confident

You're full of it

You're full of shit

But you see

[Bridge]

The world is full of girls like you

The world is full of girls like you

The world is full of girls like you

The world is full of sluts like you

So you see

[Outro]

We'll believe it

When we see it

We'll believe it

When we see it
