  • I'm not playing this game no more
    I'm not a medicine, so call the medics
    You're all as dumb as you were before
    Don't ask me questions
    I won't explain it
    It should be fun, but it's getting old
    I take my medicine to be your favorite man

    You think you understand but you don't
    You've got no idea at all
    And in between the sentence
    There's still assemblance
    Intelligently screwed

    Oh yeah, it's all right
    'Cause I got a pretty face
    I guess that I can sing all right
    Oh yeah, it's all right
    I can love you like a sailor
    I can make you dance all night

    Maybe you'll understand when I'm gone
    That you had no idea at all
    That in this very second
    I'll never mention the dreams I keep from you

    Oh yeah, it's all right
    'Cause I got a pretty face
    I guess that I can sing all right
    Oh yeah, it's all right
    I can love you like a sailor
    I can make you dance all night
    Oh yeah, it's all right
    'Cause I got a pretty face
    I guess that I can sing all right
    I can be your favorite man

    Don't mean to sound like a rotten boy
    For all my blessings, I'm surely grateful
    'Cause I'm the dream you've been waiting for
    I always dreamt that I would be your favorite

    Oh yeah, it's all right
    'Cause I got a pretty face
    I guess that I can sing all right
    Oh yeah, it's all right
    I can love you like a sailor
    I can make you dance all night
    Oh yeah, it's all right
    I got a pretty face
    I guess that I can sing all right
    I can be your favorite man Writer/s: GABE SAPORTA
