Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I wanna love you like in movies

A ticket for two, please

You could've been that man

If this was really showbiz

You would give me roses

And I would take your hand, uh

Hollywood made it look easy

Why'd it have to tease me?

I don't understand

I tried to love like in the movies

But, all I got was plastic plants

(All I got was plastic plants)

(All I got was plastic plants)

[Verse 2]

I've got something inside me

That I wanna confess (Wanna confess)

You've been cutting your ties and

I don't wanna be that (Wanna be that)

I've (I've) got (Got) something inside me

That (That) I (I) wanna confess (Wanna confess)

If your roses are dead and your violets ain't true

I don't wanna grow next to you

[Verse 3]

I thought that our love would be a series

Always have you near me

Yeah, that was the plan

You were meant to call me on the daily

Link me like a daisy chain upon my hand

Hollywood made me think it was simple

I took it too literal

Now I understand

I thought you were growing up

Thought we'd have a real romance

But, all I got was plastic plants

[Verse 4]

I've got something inside me

That I wanna confess (Wanna confess)

You've been cutting your ties and

I don't wanna be that (Wanna be that)

I've (I've) got (Got) something inside me

That (That) I (I) wanna confess (Wanna confess)

If your roses are dead and your violets ain't true

I don't wanna grow next to you

[Verse 5]

You're gonna know what you did

When I don't holler back, babe

Look at me (Look at me)

I was your girl

But you never gave me jack, babe

Can't you see? (Can't you see?)

Now we've grown apart (Yeah)

Didn't even try so the love ran dry

Now we're back at the start

You had your chance

You just gave me plastic plants

[Verse 6]

I've got something inside me

That I wanna confess (Wanna confess)

You've been cutting your ties and

I don't wanna be that (Wanna be that)

I've (I've) got (Got) something inside me

That (That) I (I) wanna confess (Wanna confess)

If your roses are dead and your violets ain't true

I don't wanna grow next to you

[Verse 7]

Baby

Next to you, next to you

Babe
