Everything you do you do so right The clothes you buy are awfully nice You wear your image bullet-proof Your stocks are always through the roof
You make me feel so stupid Make me feel stupid
And you grew up, made in the sun They all loved you from Day 1 You always remembered everyone's name You always won the guessin' games, ooh yeah
You made me feel stupid Made me feel stupid And I'm not gonna take it anymore Not gonna take it anymore
You always pick the perfect wine Your money is sho nuff greener than mine Your wit pours out when you open your mouth My hometown is smaller than your house
You make me feel so stupid Make me feel stupid And I'm not gonna take it anymore Not gonna take it anymore

Stay forever Stay a little while I'm pleased to see you I'm pleased to see you smile September clouds Shaped just like shells September rain Should fall somewhere else
It's been a long time A lonely long time for me I've missed your body I've missed your company There was a girl Who looked just like you There were some nights You passed through my room

Ah historier du kan Innan du och jag skiljs fran varann Jag onskar att vi satt pa ett hotellrum nagonstans Och lyssna pa historier vi kan
