[Verse 1]
I wish you were like Father of the Bride
I wish you'd learn to roll your eyes at me
When I do something you don't like
When I do it just to spite you
[Refrain]
Crack a smile, come on, stay a while
[Verse 2]
I wish you were the coach of the football team
Yeah, like, really cut your teeth
Chase your dreams, find out what it means
To be an actual human being
[Refrain]
Crack a smile, come on, stay a while
[Pre-Chorus]
I could be the one to teach ya
[Chorus]
But I wanna say “fuck it all”
And then I wanna have a call
Why are you looking for needle in a haystack
Whеn there's horses?
I wanna say “fuck it all”
I'm half-еxpecting you to call
Why are you looking for a needle in a haystack?
So unimportant
I wish that you'd notice me
[Verse 3]
Your first love peels the tape off your eyes
So you can carry on moonlighting
What if a good heart is too good for your own good?
Trips and fall apart for months on end
[Refrain]
Crack a smile, come on, stay a while
[Chorus]
I wanna say “fuck it all”
And then I wanna have a call
Why are you looking for needle in a haystack
When there's horses?
I wanna say “fuck it all”
I'm half-expecting you to call
You're probably looking for a needle in a haystack?
So unimportant
I wish that you'd notice me
[Bridge]
I have such a vivid memory
Of turning on the TV
Showing you my new favorite thing
You let your silence speak
Shit gets passed down from you to me
I have changed what I believe
But I still just need you to be
Exactly what I need
Such a vivid memory
Of turning on the TV
Showing me your new favorite thing
I let my silence speak
Shit gets passed down from you to me
I have changed what I believe
But I still just need you to be
Exactly what I need
[Pre-Chorus]
I still need you to need you to need me
[Chorus]
I wanna say “fuck it all”
(Crack a smile, come on, stay a while)
And then I wanna have a call
(You're probably looking for a needle in a haystack)
Why are you looking for needle in a haystack?
(Crack a smile, come on, stay a while)
You're probably looking for a needle in a haystack
When there's horses
I want you to notice me
