Lyrics

Every little girl in Soho
Loves to tell me things I don’t know
Beautiful and smart, and no good for me
All your boyfriends go to film school
Nathan was in plays in high school
Me I’m gonna play the imbecile
Who keeps choosing you, even though you’re bipolar
and your selfish, and I hate you
Everyone is better than me, I think
Everyone is better than, better than me (x2)
Look what you’ve done now i’m a mess
Today I even thought i’d wear a dress
It’s beautiful, so smart and no good for me
Everyone is better than me I think
Throw your hands out if you agree with me
Everyone is better than me, I think
Everyone is better than, better than me
