Give me a year, I'll grow a bit older
Lend me your ear, and I'll whisper your name
but don't tell me a fear, or I'll run away
I can't be too sure of tomorrow's today
Although I've never seen a prettier day than this today.
Hey, I'm a little chubby, but I like to wear crop tops
I'm a little chubby and that's probably not gonna change
I'm a little chubby, but I like to wear crop tops
Hey I'm a little chubby, and it's only ever been this way.
But I gotta know,
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
Can't figure out how to work the damn thermostat.
My hair looks like !!!!!! but I've never really rocked a hat
And I can't breathe when I dream because I only have nightmares
and I can't dream when I breathe because I never can do two things at the same time
Hey, I'm a little chubby, but I like to wear crop tops
I'm a little chubby and that's probably not gonna change
I'm a little chubby, but I like to wear crop tops
Hey I'm a little chubby, and it's only ever been this way.
But I gotta know,
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do about it?

When I was a young girl, I was told to be what i wanted
So I went, and I tried to become the thing that I wanted
But now I'm a bit older, and I'm hearing something else
Now that I'm looking round I am seeing something else
That goes like
If you wanna make it, girl
You'll have to shake it, girl
Show a little more, and talk a little less
It would help if you had
bit more to your chest,
maybe a thinner waist
try putting on a dress
I am more than my tits,
I am more than my clit,
I hate wearing dresses.
But this world that we live in
would rather get off than
value the driven.
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
Well, turns out
I am more than my tits,
I am more than my clit,
I hate wearing dresses, and I got a lot to say
But this world that we live in
would rather get off than
value the driven, or the minds of our children
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If you wanna make it, girl
You'll have to shake it, girl
Show a little more, and talk a little less
It would help if you had
bit more to your chest,
maybe a thinner waist
try putting on a dress
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah
If I take off my shirt, will you listen to my music?
La di da di da, oh yeah

Gym Crush

Every night, when the time is right
you put on your tennis shoes and go
You've got other stuff to do, but that don't matter to you
water bottle, headphones in, you're ready to roll.
Your friends say their impressed with your
commitment to get fit, they know you're
spending every night at the gym.
But deep down you know, the reason you go is
in hopes to see him.
While you're pumping iron, you keep a careful eye out
scanning all the dudes in the mirror
You notice he's here, but suddenly clear is
you're biggest fear
You see your gym crush
talking to another girl
what are you to do when he's looking right through you
to smile at her?
You see your gym crush
talking to another girl
Now you feel so lame, you don't even know his name,
but it hurts all the same

but it hurts all the same
Does she squat, squat deeper than me?
Does she jump, jump higher than me?
Does she lift, lift more than me?
Can she run, run faster than me?
Can she plank, plank longer than me?
Does she sweat, sweat more than me?
Gym crush,
what are you doin.
Oh, what are you doin.
Gym crush,
what are you doin.
Oh, what are you doin.

Pt. 1 Love Song
03:10
|

You are more beautiful than
the flowers I picked the other day,
and though they died in the window,
luckily that's not your case.
That night, I wanted to tell you I loved you
and so I did. Maybe too soon?
But thankfully, you are still here.
You are my sunshine
You water my leaves
You bring out my color
You are more wonderful than
the ocean sounds that soothe
a troubled mind, though they
crash to the seashore, thankfully,
that's not your case.
I know that sometimes I can be a lot
and that's my bad
I'm learning not to always think so hard.
You are my lighthouse
You guide me to shore
You light up the nighttime
And I know we're far away for now
and inside sometimes it scares us
Oh but I have faith that someday, somehow
We'll end up in the same zipcode
You make me so happy
you don't mind my tears
you share my odd humor
You are my darlin
you are my dear
You bring out my color

Last week, I wrote a song about
how wonderful you were, but
that was before what you said the
next day
I used some metaphors about how you were like
flowers
and sunshine, but you
gave me a sunburn and looks like you might
be a weed
You ripped out my petals
You stomped on my leaves
You drained me of color
Next was a verse about how
you're like a lighthouse that
guides me to shore
who knew the shore was
just a bunch of big sharp rocks?
Before, you were the one who
lit up the night time, but now
you're the reason I'm afraid of the dark
I'll be here, crying in the bathroom
I'll be here, crying to my mom
But I'm glad you're having fun at
that beach house
I'll be here, faking a smile
I'll be here, hating my tears
but I'm glad you're having fun at
that beach house
And I know we're far away for now
and in just a month we would be closer
Until you said you're going to leave again
and plan to be single when you do
So out of the blue
Here's why I don't write love songs
They always bite me in the ass
You'd think by now I would learn my lesson
Here's why I don't write love songs
They always bite me in the ass
You'd think by now I would learn my lesson

A couple weeks back I thought
“tonight will be the big one”
I sang and it felt sublime
but
when I listened back I lost
it so I went for a run
and I cried for the whole time
I wanted to cherish the
time I had off but instead
I just wallowed around
I wanted to share in the
holiday song but my head
was too stuck in the ground
A couple weeks back I thought
“maybe this will be alright”
I don’t know how to behave
but
see, often my best is not
enough to last past the night
nor am I always so brave
I wanted to cherish the
time I had off but instead
I just wallowed around
I wanted to share in the
holiday song but my head
Was too stuck in the ground
Maybe I need you or may
be you need me maybe we
could use one another, then?
I don’t believe you I don’t
believe me maybe we con-
fuse one another then
Somehow I always wanna
sing the most
when I got a cold
Somehow I always wanna
sing the most
when I got a cold
Maybe I need you or may-
be you need me maybe we
could use one another, then?
I don’t believe you I don’t
believe me maybe we con-
fuse one another then

Wrote a song called "Bitter n' Jaded"
that was the way things were to be
love made me so frustrated
declared there no such thing for me
then you got me all caught up in your smile boy
and now there's nothing I can do
tryin hard not to text you all the time boy
I got it bad, this thing for you
Hard not to feel a little bit uneasy
though you don't seem to mind my weirdness yet
maybe you're just knowin' how to tease me
wondering when to take your chance to jet
I could see this bein just some sort of summer lovin,
but sad to say when seasons go
I'll stand still tryna act like it was nothin
You know I hated PDA 'til I met ya
Now I'm the girl I used to look up and down
standing next to you in a crowd, yeah you betchya
I gotta be holdin' you when you're around

Didn't know which way to move
'cuz I knew that you were movin'
So I took it all the time,
took your lovin' every chance I'd get
but then you left me, then you left me,
then you left me, baby
Don't you know you're killin me
You know I hated PDA 'til I met ya
Now I'm the girl I used to look up and down
standing next to you in a crowd, yeah you betchya
I would be holdin' you if you were around

2 CDs
04:03
|

Sometimes I get excited
when I think I saw something in your eyes
but, typically when I go and get excited
Turns out it was just a trick of the light
But you owe me two CDs
Though I'm sure you've forgotten by now.
You owe me two CDs
But how could I blame you for forgetting?
I should have known, I should have known, I should have known
I was just another part of that day for you
I should have known, I should have known, I should have known
I was just another part of that day
I should have known, I should have known, I should have known
I was just another part of that day for you
I should have known, I should have known, I should have known
I was just another part of that day
But you owe me two CDs
sometimes I wish I had forgotten by now.
You owe me two CDs
but I'm a fool for expecting them.
I should have known, I should have known, I should have known
I was just another part of that day for you
I should have known, I should have known, I should have known
I was just another part of that day
So
I'll stay here
and I'll think about it some days when I hear your songs
but it's none of my business bugging you anymore
You can keep the CDs
and I'm sorry, I guess I expected them.
You can keep the CDs
but you were fun think about.

Pretty Tired
03:05
|

Turns out I just sing too loud and lose my voice
Every other poor decision's a thought out choice
Can't control my own reflection, even if I try hard
Can't explain wordless rejection, or the hole of a heart
And I get really tired
and I get really cold
I can't tell if I tried
and I start feeling old
All the friends I love to make just end up movin
while
I remain, my hands they shake and I hunt for soothing
We are all just selfish creatures, crawlin for love, crawlin for love
Picking at our lovely features, hoping for love, hoping for love
But I get really tired
and I get really cold
I can't tell if I tried
and I start feeling old
Death, it creeps into my mind more often than not
Hard to feel a bit less weary when I'm hoping a lot
But I feel.
I don't wanna.
When I feel,
I don't wanna.
But I feel.
And I don't wanna.
Then I feel.

The Tinder Song
02:57

Looking for love can be hard.
You never know when to let down your guard
So many fine looking people in the street, a million hotties that you kinda wanna meet.
You're gonna make the move at what cost?
Now that our art of communication is lost
we only know how to talk through text
how we ever gonna find someone to...
go on a bike ride with?
Now, there's an app
to deal with that.
I tell you tinder is a dream come true
I feel alone, I can just talk to you
and if we wanna we can text all night
and then unmatch in the morning light
I tell you tinder is a dream come true
I feel alone, I can just talk to you
and if we wanna we can text all night
and then unmatch in the morning light
T-I-N-D-E-R
T-I-N-D-E-R
T-I-N-D-E-R
Tinderlationships
When you get a match, it feels great!
Who knows, maybe you'll go on a date
That'll probably happen, one out of 10
It's really up to you what you do then
You imagine really getting along
but when you meet it always turns out you're wrong
You could find a lover with some crazy luck
though most people use tinder just to find someone to--
TAKE TO A MOVIE
I tell you tinder is a dream come true
I feel alone, I can just talk to you
and if we wanna we can text all night
and then unmatch in the morning light
I tell you tinder is a dream come true
I feel alone, I can just talk to you
and if we wanna we can text all night
and then unmatch in the morning light
