A brand new person just texted me
Asking me for all of my availability
And I said "Nah, I can't right now"
And she's still trying to figure out how
I turned him down 3 years after
He thinks that I can't let go of her
But he's so wrong though she was pretty
So let me set the record straight on why I quit dating
I don't need a woman to hold me when I can hold my cat
Why should I have to keep fighting with someone over this or that
When they'll just dump me a day later and make me sad
Because I went and made them all shades of mad
I don't need to date anybody
When I'm living out my teenage dream
I mean take one look at me
I went to go see Taylor Swiftie
Why do I need another person to hurt me
When I can just keep living out my teenage dream
I don't know if I should gobble down my pizza or starve
I don't know if it's because I don't eat or if it's the carbs
But for some reason I don't like the color of his car
And I'm still piecing together the way he scratches
Don't get me started on the way that he folds his clothes
Or the way that she's always picking at her toes
Or the way that they just text each other without any clothes
So maybe I see only red flags in everyone that I date
I don't need a man to hold me when I can hold my cat
Don't need to fight with someone over this or that
When they'll dump me the next day and try and make me feel bad
And then when I don't they get all shades of mad
I don't need to date anybody
When I'm living out my teenage dream
I mean just take one look at me
I'm obviously overly happy
Why do I need another person to just hurt me
When I could just keep living out my teenage dream
I say that "it's not me, it's just you"
I can't stand the way you tie your shoe
Or the way that you think you look good in orange
Or the way that you always try to make people green
Or the way that you get drunk and just leave
Or the way you think that...
You know, fuck it, they understand that they're terrible
God!
I don't need to date anybody
When I'm doing great as a teenage dream
I mean take one look at me
I'm having a blast with my family
I don't need anybody else to come and hurt me
So I'm just going to keep on living my teenage dream
