Man Overboard - Reality Check lyrics

rate me

She’s over it,

Just so you know there’s no turning back

Your loose leaf and blue jeans

And lines from old movies won’t cut it

She needs something better than that

Get over it,

Cause you won’t give a shit

When she’s crawling back

Your daydreams and big schemes and Hollywood endings should cover it

You want something better than that

You could be the one

You could be the one

Shut them out, shut them down

Here comes something not so friendly

Make it clear it’s not pretend, see

They could be the one but you hit and run

Shut them out

Shut them down

Another one’s getting away

She’s under him just in case you think she’s coming back

They went out

He paid for the date and she waited for nothing

Tell me are you better than that?

You’re blowing it

But you won’t be around when she wants you back

You’ll move on to something you think is more stunning

But, brother, you’re gonna regret all that

You could be the one

You could be the one

Shut them out, shut them down

Here comes something not so friendly

Make it clear it’s not pretend, see

They could be the one but you hit and run

Shut them out

Shut them down

Another one’s getting away

You’re gonna go through hell

And want to go through it all over again

Over again

This is where you belong and your weaknesses are showing again

Showing again

It’s a decade long game of phone tag

But if it’s wrong

Why do we still call back?

Hey do you want to take a ride?

It’s really getting nice outside

It’s the time of year that I wish she’d come back

You could be the one

You could be the one

Shut them out, shut them down

Here comes something not so friendly

Make it clear it’s not pretend, see

They could be the one but you hit and run

Shut them out

Shut them down

Another one’s getting away
