"She's A Sweetheart" lyrics

"She's A Sweetheart"

Short end of the stick, yet again, it goes to me
I'll take it like a champ with grace and class, accept my trophy

This seems to be a trend
Everybody's got an idea of what I'm supposed to be
And it tends so conveniently
To align with what they need

She's a sweetheart, she's an angel
Miss perfect princess with a big smile
She's a lover, people pleaser
She gives it all, that's why we love her

"What you give is what you get," I was told as a kid
But if I'm so considerate of all the world and all your feelings
How come all I get is taken lightly and for granted?

This seems to be a trend
Everybody's got an idea of what I'm supposed to be
And it tends (It tends) so conveniently (Conveniently)
To align with what they need

She's a sweetheart, she's an angel
Miss perfect princess with a big smile
She's a lover, people pleaser
She gives it all, that's why we love her

If you want her (If you want her), you can have her (You can have her)
All it takes is (All it takes is) an empty promise (An empty promise)
She'll be here (She'll be here) regardless (Regardless)
Giving you access (You access) just 'cause you're asking

And it might make her a fool
But it's just what you do when you think you have to
So take advantage, the best that you can
And in the end it won't come back to bite you

She's a try-hard, an easy target
Much too dedicated to the wrong cause
She's a martyr, self-sacrificer
Puts all before her, that's why we love her
