lauren kennedy - i can do better than that كلمات الأغنية

[cathy]
my best friend had a little situation
at the end of her senior year
and like a shot
she and mitch_ll got married that summer
carolann getting bigger every minute
thinking, “what am i doing here?”
while mitch_ll’s out every night
being a heavy_metal drummer
they got a little cute house
on a little cute street
with a crucifix on the door
mitch_ll got a job at a record store in the mall
just the typical facts of a typical life
in a town on the eastеrn shore—
i thought about what i wanted
it wasn’t like that at all
madе carolann a cute baby sweater
thinking, “i can do better than that”
(yeah, hey, hey)
in a year or so i moved to the city
thinking, “what have i got to lose?”
got a room, got a cat
and got twenty pounds thinner
met a guy in a class i was taking
who you might say looked like tom cruise—
he wouldn’t leave me alone
‘less i went with him to dinner
and i guess he was cute
and i guess he was sweet
and i guess he was good in bed—
i gave up my life for the better part of a year
so i’m starting to think that this maybe might work
and the second it entered my head
he needed to take some time off
focus on his “career”—
he blew me off with a heartfelt letter—
i thought, “i can do better than that”

you don’t have to get a haircut
you don’t have to change your shoes
you don’t have to like duran duran
just love me

you don’t have to put the seat down
you don’t have to watch the news
you don’t have to learn to tango
you don’t have to eat prosciutto
you don’t have to change a thing
just stay with me
i want you and you and nothing but you
miles and piles of you—
finally i’ll have something worthwhile
to think of each morning—
you and you and nothing but you
no substitution will do
nothing but fresh, undiluted and pure
top of the line
and totally mine!

i don’t need any lifetime commitments
i don’t need to get hitched tonight
i don’t want you to throw up all your walls and defenses
i don’t mean to put on any pressure
but i know when a thing is right
and i spend every day reconfiguring my senses
when we get to my house
take a look at that town
take a look at how far i’ve gone
i will never go back
never look back anymore
and it feels like my life led right to your side
and will keep me there from now on

think about what you wanted
think about what could be
think about how i love you—
say you’ll move in with me
think of what’s great about me and you
think of the bullsh_t we’ve both been through
think of what’s past
because we can do
better!
we can do better!
we can do better than that!
we can do better
we can do better than that! (hey)
we can do better, oh, better
