"Competition" lyrics

"Competition"

[Jesy:]
Yeah, you're such a gentleman
You always open doors for me
But you see us kind of different
It's like you always have to be
The first one to open his mouth
The last one to throw in the towel
It's time to chill yourself out
Boy, you're trying

Just a little bit too hard
I thought I told you when we met
That I like you for who you are
But I think you like an argument
I don't need to speak in my mind
I'm too grown, I'm taking my time
I'm sick of hearing you whine
Listen, baby

[Leigh-Anne:]
You don't have to come first
Second is OK 'cause
You ain't ever beating me

[All:]
I say it once
You say it twice
You know I like a little competition from time to time
You think I'm wrong
When I know I'm right
You lose. This ain't no kinda competition
I like a man with ambition
But when you gonna know it's time to let go?
'Cause I think I'm about to lose my mind

[Perrie:]
Tell me does it scare you,
That I'm living my dream?
Now I don't mean to hurt you
But you make me wanna scream
You smile while grinding your teeth
You clap while stomping your feet
You act about 17
I'm so tired

[Jade:]
You don't have to come first
Second is OK 'cause
You ain't ever beating me

[All:]
I say it once
You say it twice
You know I like a little competition from time to time
You think I'm wrong
When I know I'm right
You lose. This ain't no kinda competition
I like a man with ambition
But when you gonna know it's time to let go?
'Cause I think I'm about to lose my mind

[Perrie:]
I can do it better
You know I can do it better

[Jade:]
What you tryin' to prove?
What is it with you?
Always thinking
[All:]
I can do it better
You know I can do it better
[Jade:]
Baby, I can't stand
Always arguments
Why you wanna fight?
(Why you wanna fight?)
[All:]
You ain't always right
I can do it better every day and every night
I can do it better every day and every night

I say it once
You say it twice
You know I like a little competition from time to time
You think I'm wrong
When I know I'm right
You lose. This ain't no kinda competition
(no competition)
I like a man with ambition
(with ambition, baby)
But when you gonna know (baby) it's time to let go? (baby)
'Cause I think (baby) I'm about to lose my mind
