I've Got the Best
See them…
in the street light,
done up…
for a hot night,
made up….
like a French whore,
skin tight…
on a dance floor.
Their men keep coming,
the richest in town,
end up laying all
their money down.
Got no pity
for all of these clowns,
’cause I know…
I have got the best, girl,
they have got the rest,
I’ve got the brass ring,
they, the hot mess,
I’ve god the good times,
they got the stress,
they got high maintenance,
and the sh-t tests.
I ain’t tellin’ no lies girl,
you’ll always be a prize girl,
this I’ll testify, girl,
I’ve got the best.
See them…
posting online,
pictures…
their job full time,
chasing…
celebrity,
that stuff…
just ain’t for me.
Sad man keep coming
and wasting their pay,
dreaming they might
get with them some day.
Got no pity
for the games they play,
’cause I know…
I have got the best, girl,
they have got the rest,
I’ve got the brass ring,
they, the hot mess,
I’ve god the good times,
they got the stress,
they got high maintenance,
and the sh-t tests.
I ain’t tellin’ no lies girl,
you’ll always be a prize girl,
this I’ll testify, girl,
I’ve got the best.
Against the grain,
we just aren’t the same,
their games insane,
that sh-t is a pain,
let’s make it plain,
you’re taking my name,
they’re all that’s vain,
let them go down in flames...
Quiet, strong, and true, girl,
the bedrock of my whole world,
they’re fake diamond to a pearl,
no, they have no claim.
I have got the best, girl,
they have got the rest,
I’ve got the brass ring,
they, the hot mess,
I’ve god the good times,
they got the stress,
they got high maintenance,
and the sh-t tests.
I ain’t tellin’ no lies girl,
you’ll always be a prize girl,
this I’ll testify, girl,
I’ve got the best.
