[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, I had a boyfriend
I kept him around way too long
When I finally got around to the leaving
He told me not to write him a song
And that's what I do when I'm feeling blue
But he gave me no material
Nothing worth putting pen to paper
The world's most tone-deaf see-you-later

[Chorus]
Don't flatter yourself, it ain't worth my time
Racking my brain, trying to explain that the girl don't want the guy
Won't trouble myself, to write about you feels so wrong, so
Don't flatter yourself
You ain't getting a song
A song, a song, a song

[Verse 2]
Maybe if you'd been a bit romantic
Instead of ditching me for the boys
Nothing 'bout your loving was poetic
So why would I go wasting my voice?
On some cliches about better days
When you gave me no material
Nothing worth putting pen to paper
The world's most tone-deaf see-you-later

[Chorus]
Don't flatter yourself, it ain't worth my time
Racking my brain, trying to explain that the girl don't want the guy
Won't trouble myself, to write about you feels so wrong, so
Don't flatter yourself
You ain't getting a song
A song, a song, a song

[Bridge]
Is it just 'cause you're ashamed?
Or didn't think there'd come a day when I'd leave you
And tell the world where you went wrong?
Baby, it'll be okay
I hope you learn from your mistakes, and
You're dating someone who don't write songs
But that's what I do when I'm feeling blue

[Chorus]
Don't flatter yourself, it ain't worth my time
Racking my brain, trying to explain that the girl don't want the guy
Won't trouble myself, to write about you feels so wrong, so
Don't flatter yourself
You ain't getting a song
A song, a song, a song
You ain't getting a song
A song, a song, a song
You ain't getting a song
