Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Heavy is the heart that wants to be a famous face
Sucking all the air out of the room
Fragile is the ego of the man that needs to win
'Cause he doesn't know how to lose
[PreChorus]
You think they're in the palm of your hand
But they're really under your skin
Just when I think that I understand
Then I find I don't know a thing
[Chorus]
What's not to like about me?
I'm a lover not a fighter sort of thing
Imagine life without me
Don't stir me up 'cause I am not your cup of tea
Look at yourself
[Verse 2]
Look, sweetheart
I really wanna depart
Your lights are on but no one's home
Get off your phone and let's restart
[Verse 3]
Back of my police car
I never wanna leave ya
Let Luther tell ya my name is Elba
Sayonara, I'll see ya
[PreChorus]
You think they're in the palm of your hand
But they're really under your skin
Just when I think that I understand
Then I find I don't know a thing
[Chorus]
What's not to like about me?
I'm a lover not a fighter sort of thing
Imagine life without me
Don't stir me up 'cause I am not your cup of tea
Look at yourself
Self, self, self, self, self self, self, self, self, self, self, self, self
Self, self, self
[Chorus]
What's not to like about me?
I'm a lover not a fighter sort of thing
Imagine life without me
Don't stir me up 'cause I am not your cup of tea
Look at yourself
Look at yourself
Look at yourself
Self, self, self, self
