"How You Get 'Em (Is How You Lose 'Em)" lyrics

How you get 'em's how you lose 'em
How they get you's how they go
Blame's on you for why you choose 'em
But then again, you never know

God, you'll never finish with the run-throughs if you keep standing in place
Girl, you wouldn't recognize a breakthrough if it punched you in the face

You, you, you with your damn green eyes
Oh, I bought it, I bought it again
I'm the ingenue with the best friend's smile
Oh, but I tried to forget
Ooh, ooh
Always lose like the train's on time
I should've known how it ends, I should've known how it ends

You knew him best before you knew him
'Fore you were blinded by his kiss
How you get 'em's how you lose 'em
He'll tell you thirty seconds in

And God, you swore last time you came to, you would never be the same
But girl, you didn't recognize the breakthrough when it punched you in the face

You, you, you with your damn green eyes
Oh, I bought it, I bought it again
I'm the ingenue with the best friend's smile
Oh, but I tried to forget
Ooh, ooh
Always lose like the train's on time
I should've known how it ends, I should've known how it ends

How you get 'em's how you lose 'em, how you get 'em's how you lose 'em
How you get 'em's how you lose 'em, how you get 'em's how you lose 'em
How you get 'em's how you lose 'em
