Self Esteem

La la, la la la
La la, la la la la

I wrote her off
For the tenth time today
And practiced all the
Things I would say

But she came over
I lost my nerve
I took her back
And made her dessert

Now I know
I'm being used
That's okay, man
'Cause I like the abuse

I know
She's playing with me
That's okay
'Cause I got no self esteem

Oh way oh, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah

We make plans
To go out at night
I wait till 2
Then I turn out the light

This rejection's
Got me so low
If she keeps it up
I just might tell her so

Oh way oh, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah

When she's saying
Oh, that she wants only me
Then I wonder why
She sleeps with my friends

When she's saying
Oh, that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how
Much more I can spend

Well I guess
I should speak up for myself
But I really think
It's better this way

The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
Right
Yeah yeah yeah

Now I'll relate
This little bit
It happens more
Than I'd like to admit

Late at night
She knocks on my door
She's drunk again
And looking to score

Now I know
I should say no
But that's kind of hard
When she's ready to go

I may be dumb
But I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker
With no self esteem

Oh way oh, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah

When she's saying
Oh, that she wants only me
Then I wonder why
She sleeps with my friends

When she's saying
Oh, that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how
Much more I can spend

Well I guess
I should speak up for myself
But I really think
It's better this way

The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
Right
Yeah yeah yeah
