[Intro]
Let me hear you say hey, hey, hey
(Hey, hey, hey)
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey, hey, ho
(Hey, hey, ho)
[Verse 1]
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
Even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad (Yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Where are the hopes? Where are the dreams?
My Cinderella story scene?
When do you think they'll finally see?
[Chorus]
That you're not, not, not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't, you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me? I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
[Post-Chorus]
Alright, alright
Yeah
[Verse 2]
I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why, a certain time of month, I don't wanna hold his hand (Uh-uh)
I hate it when they go out and we stay in
And they come home smellin' like their ex-girlfriend
[Pre-Chorus]
I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see
[Chorus]
That you're not, not, not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't, you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me? I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
[Bridge]
Gimme an A!
Always give me what I want
Gimme a V!
Be very, very good to me
R!
Are you gonna treat me right?
I!
I can put up a fight
Gimme an L!
Let me hear you scream loud
(Let me hear you scream loud)
One, two, three, four!
[Pre-Chorus]
Where are the hopes? Where are the dreams?
My Cinderella story scene?
When do you think they'll finally see?
[Chorus]
That you're not, not, not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't, you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me? I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
