音乐咖啡厅:Karmin - Acapella

Used to be your baby, used to be your lady
Thought you were the perfect lover
All the harmony went falling out of key, so
Now you gotta find another
Now you're talking crazy saying that you made me
Like I was your Cinderella
You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo¹
I'ma do it acapella, yeah
I'ma do it acapella
.
Once upon a time, I met the perfect guy
He had that Colgate smile, he had that suit and tie
Mama always said get a rich boyfriend
You don't gotta love 'em, girl, you can pretend
You better totes believed her, yeah, every word she said
Thought he was gluten-free, but all that I got was bread
Mama always said nice guys finish last
Beat 'em at his own game, honey, take the cash
.
Ooh, and what a lucky girl you will be
But no, he didn't do jack² for me
I want a bean with the beanstalk
And if the magic ain't right, time to walk
.

Out on our first date, he took me gourmet³
We hit that Olive⁴ Garden, my Little Italy
Daddy always said let the gentleman pay
Never ever go Dutch at the buffet⁵
I saw his bad intention, he didn't wanna talk
He put the saucy⁶ on it (oops!) time to check my wallet
Daddy always said money can't buy class
You don't wanna get stuck taking out trash
.
Ooh, yeah I guess it wasn't meant to be
Because he didn't do jack for me
I want a bean with the beanstalk
And if the magic ain't right, time to walk
.
Used to be your baby, used to be your lady

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'ma do it acapella
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Watch me do it in falsett-uh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Never mind, bring the beat back
.
