Second Best

She's got her way with words
And likes to flirt with all the guys
It's a sick sophistication

But she's not like the other girls
She won't be nobody's prize
Don't want to waste that education

But you tilt your head back when you laugh
You bite your lips and you bat your eyes
It's just all kinds of temptation

But if you don't do anything by half
Oh it's got to come as no surprise
That the word is getting round
That reputation

And oh I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
The last night got pretty hazy
Honey you should never never ever settle
For anything less

Oh but why's it so, so, so, so, so, so
Tell me why is it so crazy
If for once you could give it all a rest
And just fall for second best

She's got her way with words
And likes to flirt with all the guys
She's just fishing for reaction

She's not like them other girls
Still won't be nobody's prize
Won't give away that satisfaction

But you tilt your head back when you laugh
You bite your lips and you bat your eyes
You're just begging for some action

But if you don't do anything by half
Oh it's got to come as no surprise
You're a drug
And it's a chemical attraction

And oh I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
The last night got pretty hazy
Honey you should never never ever settle
For anything less

Oh but why's it so, so, so, so, so, so
Tell me why is it so crazy
If for once you could give it all a rest
And just fall for second best

And oh I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
The last night got pretty hazy
Honey you should never never ever settle
For anything less

Oh but why's it so, so, so, so, so, so
Tell me why is it so crazy
If for once you could give it all a rest
And just fall for second best
