lyrics

When I met you in person, I was hoping that you’d be the one
So that I could stop searching, and at last I would finally be done
I get so tired of these “laid back” and “sarcastic” blokes
Looking for someone who will laugh at their terrible jokes
But still, I keep trying; I know just how much is at stake
Tell me, how much longer is this going to take?

We had good conversation - yeah, you seemed like you had half a brain
You were going to grad school and you told me a lot about Spain
You seemed to like me, yeah, you said we should hang out again
But then you ghosted - yeah, I’ve heard nothing from you since then
Well, I’m so embarrassed, it feels like my heart’s gonna break
Tell me how much longer is this going to take?

Well you know that I wonder, as I’m sitting here writing this song
Just what I did that you happened to think was so wrong
Was it my texting? Yeah, that’s something I really do fear
Or were you disgusted by my drink made of ice cream and beer?
Although I still ponder, I can’t figure out my mistake
Tell me, how much longer is this going to take?


BRIDGE:
And I see all these women on facebook
That I’m not even sure how I know
And they’re all either married or pregnant
And they’ve all got that sickening glow
It hurts so badly, I don’t know where I can begin
I find myself wondering, “Why can’t I just be more like them?”

When I looked at your profile, it said that you were thirty-three
But that’s not what I found when I went and looked up your CV
You must have thought that I was someone who’d fall for your tricks
But all the while I was well aware you’re thirty-six
Well, I dodged a bullet, I see now you’re clearly a fake
Tell me, how much longer is this going to take?
