Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch
What a catch
Whoa
[Verse 2]
You'll never catch us so just let me be
Said I'll be fine till the hospital or American embassy
Ms. Flack, said I still want you back
Yeah, Ms. Flack, said I still want you back
[Verse 3]
I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch
What a catch
And all I can think of is the way I'm the one who charmed the one
Who gave up on you
Who gave up on you
Whoa
[Verse 4]
They say the captain goes down with the ship
So, when the world ends, will God go down with it?
Ms. Flack, said I still want you back
Yeah, Ms. Flack, said I still want you back
[Verse 5]
I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch
What a catch
And all I can think of is the way I'm the one who charmed the one
Who gave up on you
Who gave up on you, whoa
[Verse 6]
What a catch, what a catch
What a catch, what a catch
Oh, whoa
[Verse 7]
I will never end up like him
Behind my back, I already am
Keep a calendar, this way you will always know
[Verse 8]
I said I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch
What a catch
And all I can think of is the way I'm the one who charmed the one
Who gave up on you
Who gave up on you
[Verse 9]
(Where is your boy tonight)
(I hope he is a gentleman)
(We're going down, down in an earlier round)
(And sugar, we're goin' down swinging)
(Dance, dance, we're falling apart to half time)
(Dance, dance, these are the lives you'd love to lead)
(This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race)
(This ain't a scene, it's a goddamn arms race)
(One night, yeah, one more time)
(Thanks for the memories)
(Even though they weren't so great)
(Growing up, growing up)
[Verse 10]
I got troubled thoughts and the self-esteem to match
What a catch
What a catch
