Girlfriend

(album: Basement Party - 2022)

Your girlfriend left the other night
You're so selfish and impatient
Looking me dead in the eyes
Why do you put me in this situation?
When you say "Stay over a while
We can sleep on the floor next to my bed"
And we both know why I agree at the time
And then regret it, because

You keep me in the wings until she needs a stand-in
Like I don't know
Seen it so many times, I know all the lines
I'll be ready to go
When you need me, I'll be ready to go, ooh

I watched your every move
Watched as you made your decision
Keeping her further from you
Moving me into position
And you'll say it's over with her, you can kiss me again
In the back room
We both know why I agree at the time
And I let you, because

You keep me in the wings until she needs a stand-in
Like I don't know
Seen it so many times, I know all the lines
I'll be ready to go
Yeah, when you need me, I'll be ready to go

And ooh, I can't lie
I think I'm addicted to all of your issues
And ooh, I can't lie
I think I'll keep living for your bad decisions
'Til somebody comes and they pull me along
And I'm miles away from you, because

You keep me in the wings until she needs a stand-in
Like I don't know
Seen it so many times, I know all the lines
I'll be ready to go
Yeah, when you need me, I'll be ready to go
When you need me, I'll be ready to go
When you need me, I'll be ready to go, ooh
