No one wants the nice guy

The invention of lying (the film) inspired me to write this, although in his case the good guy DOES win! :D

VERSE ONE

The one that makes you smile

The one that doesn't care when you hog the duvet

The one that gives you his jacket even though he's cold

But he's the nice guy, so he remains unsold

VERSE TWO

He makes you giggle stupidly with his silly jokes

And that face you pull thats embarassing doesn't seem to matter

Because when you're with him it's different than usual

Its like its so much more casual

HOOK

He's too nice

He's too nice

For his own good

So you think twice

So you think twice

As he knew you would

Girl why'd you put yourself through all the pain

When you're gonna find a bad boy

And get hurt again?

CHORUS

No ones likes the good guy

No one wants the one that hurts when he sees you cry

No one sees the nice guy

You know the one that calls after a bad day

Just to make sure that you're okay

VERSE THREE

You're having lunch with the guy that's you're best friend whilst flirting with the waitor

You know he likes you, and it hurts him you but you hope he'll get over it

He's not quite what you're looking for

He makes you laugh, makes you smile, but you need something more

VERSE FOUR

He knows you better than anyone else

He's met you're family and they try to match you up

And you tell them connstantly he's nice but he's not the one

It's a frienship only, and anything more can't be undone

HOOK

He's too nice

He's too nice

For his own good

So you think twice

So you think twice

As he knew you would

Girl why'd you put yourself through all the pain

When you're gonna find a bad boy

And get hurt again?

CHORUS

No ones likes the good guy

No one wants the one that's there when you want to cry

No one sees the nice guy

You know the one that calls after a bad day

Just to make sure that you're okay

BRIDGE

You don't understand why the guys you're with are out to get you

You don't comprehend that soon enough you'll both be through

And remember the nice guy who didn't care when you looked a mess

Well he's still waiting, too scared to confess

His true feelings, cus' he knows that he'll get hurt

You want to remain best friends, and that just makes it worse

You give him words of wisdom, and you're best advice

But he'll never give up or let you go cus' he's far too nice

CHORUS

No ones likes the good guy

No one wants the one that's there when you want to cry

No one sees the nice guy

You know the one that calls after a bad day

Just to make sure that you're okay
