lyrics

Nothing that you’ve done to me makes sense
I said “no” and you’ve been tryna hop my fence
That was an hour ago, you’re still my present tense
Ugh, men.

You’re like a child, I know you think that I’m your toy
You’re coming at me like a whiny little boy
You’re getting angry ‘cause you think I’m being coy
I’m not playing games, gonna start taking names
You think I’m yours to claim but now I’m just annoyed

Excuse...you, excuse you
I do what I want to, so excuse you

Now I’ve spent half my night fending off your advances
Funneling free drinks my way, how romantic
Why can’t you see that you ruined your chances
On the floor with your white boy dances

You’re tryna buy me with libations
Maybe ‘cause I got a reputation
Well fuck that noise! I’m my own creation
I don’t owe you shit
You can’t have all of this for a gin and tonic
Here’s what I say to your expectations:

Excuse...you, excuse you
I do what I want to, so excuse you
Excuse...you, excuse you
I do what I want to, so excuse you

I go to the ladies’, fix my hair
And you can bet there’s seven other women there
One of ‘em’s sayin some guy won’t leave her alone
Another says that some guy followed her home
I tell ‘em I got one on my ass
He’s been buying me drinks, they say “least he’s got class”
I say, “Sisters, I don’t know what we’re gonna do,”
And they all say, “me too.”
So we storm the bar and we all say

Excuse...you, excuse you
We do what we want to, so excuse you
Excuse...you, excuse you
We do what we want to, so excuse you
