"BUILD A BOY" lyrics

I've always been particular with what I like
My momma says there's nothing wrong with having a type
But I'm just like the princess and the pea
If it's not right then I'll just leave
Then I'll just leave, leave

There's something scary about people I can't read
And I can't read your mind so you're confusing me
I'm not Cinderella
I'll find a shoe that fits me better
Glass breaks easily and I'm not so naive

If I could build a boy
A boy that wouldn't leave
He'd bend and break and love and smile along with me
We'd both be opposites and similar you see
If I could build a boy
If I could build the boy for me, oh

I think you got a little tired of playing nice
Good boys finish last oh isn't that right
You asked me for a song
So here's a verse
Sing along
It's not the story that you wanted
But I'm so polite

If I could build a boy
A boy that wouldn't leave
He'd bend and break and love and smile along with me
We'd both be opposites and similar you see
If I could build a boy
Wish I could build the boy for me, oh

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

If I could build a boy
A boy that wouldn't leave
He'd bend and break and love and smile along with me
We'd both be opposites and similar you see
Wish I could build a boy
If I could build a boy for me
