BRENDAN BENSON - WHAT
From the EXCELLENT Lapalco.



              
What are you t

              
rying to do to

                
 me, girl?
              
I closed my ey

              
es, I don't wa

           
nt to see, gir

          
l
              
I don't want t

              
o hear about y

           
ou and him, gi

           
rl
              
I just want to

              
 know if it's 

              
love that you'

                  
re in, girl.

              
'Cause you can

             
't possibly be

             
 serious about

           
 him, girl
             
And he's got t

             
o be delirious

             
 if he thinks 

       
he can win
             
With a not-so-

      
pretty face (N

ot-so-pretty f

ace)
             
He's come to t

      
ake my place (

Come to take m

y place)
             
She's easily a


mused
            
And I know 'ca

             
use she fell f

             
or the same sh

         
it I once used

...

              
The things you

              
 say and the t

            
hings you do, 

             
girl
              
I've added the

              
m up and they 

            
don't compute,

             
 girl
              
I give you an 

              
inch and you t

           
ake a mile, gi

            
rl
              
You couldn't s

              
ay no 'cause i

             
t ain't your s

           
tyle, girl, gi

      
rl

             
But it's obvio

             
us to me that 

              
he thinks he's

                   
 gonna score
             
But it's not t

             
he case, you s

              
ay you're only

             
 friends and n

       
othing more
             
But it makes p

      
erfect sense
             
And I speak fr

      
om experience
             
She's easy to 

   
persuade
            
She's a piece 

             
of cake and he

            
 thinks he's g

       
ot her made

             
You said goodb

You just keep
