[Verse 1]
There was a time
I was livin' as a prisoner inside my own mind
And there was a time
Where the cat and mouse tried to make me
Barbie-sized and I obliged

[Pre-Chorus]
Pulled leather over my eyes, in a hundred-degree heat
People out here gettin' fired for chocolate in the backseat (It's a true story)
I had too much of my fill and turns out it wasn't cheap
People always hung around who only want it skin-deep

[Chorus]
And now I'm sayin' no more melon cakеs on birthdays
No more barricades in doorways
Finally, get to do things my way
Ah, la-la, la-la, la
You could find mе starvin' for attention most days
Amongst other things, God help me
Finally, get to do things my way
Ah, la-la, la-la, la
No more melon cake

[Verse 2]
There was a time
I was pulled in all directions and forgot about mine
But I wouldn't wish
Those thoughts on my worst enemy, they make you wish you don't exist

[Pre-Chorus]
Pulled leather over my eyes, in a hundred-degree heat
People out here gettin' fired for chocolate in the backseat
I had too much of my fill and turns out it wasn't cheap
People always hung around who only want it skin-deep

[Chorus]
And now I'm sayin' no more melon cakes on birthdays
No more barricades in doorways
Finally, get to do things my way
Ah, la-la, la-la, la
You could find me starvin' for attention most days
Amongst other things, God help me
Finally, get to do things my way
Ah, la-la, la-la, la

[Post-Chorus]
No more melon cake
Ah-ha (Ah-ha)
No more melon cake
Ah-ha (Ah-ha)
No more melon cake
Ah-ha (Ah-ha)
No more melon cake
Ah-ha (Ah-ha)

[Bridge]
Dear little me
I'm sorry that it took so long
But baby, you're free

[Chorus]
And now I'm sayin' no more melon cakes on birthdays (Oh yeah)
No more barricades in doorways
Finally, get to do things my way (My way, oh)
Ah, la-la, la-la, la
You could find me starvin' for attention most days (On most days)
Amongst other things, God help me (God help me)
Finally, get to do things my way (Things my way)
Ah, la-la, la-la, la (Oh, oh)
No more melon cake
