Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Plastic dreams and paper houses
The same old same refrain
Mouth keeps moving, lips keep talking
But I don't hear a thing
Just la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
No, I don't hear a thing
Just la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
The same old same refrain
[PreChorus]
You slept on it, I woke up
Diamond rings and pixie dust
Can't nobody buy my love
I woke up for me
[Chorus]
And I got ready for myself, uh
I got ready for myself, na-na-na
And not for anybody else, uh
I got ready for myself, na-na-na
And I got ready for myself
[Verse 2]
Happy hours and broken bodies
Spilling down the street
Traffic noise and screaming highways
But I don't hear a thing
Just la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
No, I don't hear a thing
Just la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
The same old same refrain
[PreChorus]
You slept on it, I woke up
Diamond rings and pixie dust
Can't nobody buy my love
I woke up for me
[Chorus]
And I got ready for myself, uh
I got ready for myself, na-na-na
And not for anybody else, uh
I got ready for myself, na-na-na
And I got ready for myself
[Refrain]
You slept on it, I woke up
Diamond rings and pixie dust
And I got ready for myself, uh
Can't nobody buy my love
I woke up for me and I got ready for myself
[Bridge]
I'm lookin' good, I'm lookin' good, yeah
Same old same thing
It's all for me, me, me, me
Just like I should, just like I should, yeah
Same old same thing
It's all for me
[Chorus]
And I got ready for myself, uh
I got ready for myself, na-na-na
And not for anybody else, uh
I got ready for myself
Yeah, the sunshine is on my side
And I got ready for myself
[Outro]
You slept on it, I woke up
Diamond rings and pixie dust
And I got ready for myself
Can't nobody buy my love
I woke up for me and I got ready for myself
