"baby boy" lyrics

Baby wants his cake and wants to eat it
Baby's kinda cute, so I might spoon-feed it
Baby wants my heart and wants his freedom
But I can only do this shit for so long

Wake up, daylight through the window
Crown me princess on your pillow
Blue jean routine
Shoes, then we go
Round and round and round

Wine-stained lips, deep conversation
Whisper sweet manipulations
Says he's not ready, just be patient

Baby boy, he always calls
Night after night
Baby boy, he wants it all
But he don't wanna be mine

Know he's gonna grow up and quit the game
Realize when it's too late
What he had and what he let slip away
What a rookie mistake

Baby doesn't talk about his feelings
Rather stay self-medicating with younger women
And I feel so pathetic, being jealous
Never knowing where his head is
And I know deep inside, this shit is so wrong

Wake up, daylight, 'tis the season
To love this boy without a reason
Hope you enjoyed the girlfriend treatment

Baby boy, he always calls
Night after night
Baby boy, he wants it all
But he don't wanna be mine

Know he's gonna grow up and quit the game
Realize when it's too late
What he had and what he let slip away
What a rookie mistake

Can only take so much
Until the well has run dry
You don't give a fuck
So baby, why do I?

Can only give so much
Till I've had enough
Till I give up and just walk away
What a rookie mistake
