Jesse Malin - You Can Make Them Like You

You don't have to deal with the dealers
Let your boyfriend deal with the dealers
It only gets inconvenient
When you wanna get high alone
You don't have to know the right way home
Let your boyfriend tell the driver how to go
It only gets kinda weird
When you wanna go home alone
You don't have to know the inspiring people
Let your boyfriend know the inspiring people
You can hang in the kitchen
And talk about the stars in the upcoming sequel
When you get tired of your boyfriend's things
There's always other boys, always other boyfriends
When you get tired of your boyfriend's dream
There's always other boys, always other boyfriends
You don't have to deal with the dealers
Let your boyfriend deal with the dealers
It only gets inconvenient
When you wanna get high alone
You don't have to go to the right kind of schools
Let your boyfriend come from the right kind of schools
You can wear his old sweatshirt
You can cover yourself like a bruise
When you get tired of your boyfriend's things
There's always other boys, always other boyfriends
When you get tired of this football scenes
There's always other scenes, always other boyfriend
When you get tired of the car that he drives
There's always other boys, you can make 'em like you
When you get tired of the music he likes
There's always other boys, you can make 'em like you
They say you don't have a problem
'Til you start doing it alone
They say you don't have a problem
'Til you start bringing it home
They say you don't have a problem
'Til you start sleeping alone
There's always other boys
There's always other boys
There's always other boys
You can make 'em like you
There's always other boys
Always other boys
Always other boys
You can make 'em like you
There's always other boys
Always other boys
Always other boys
You can make 'em like you
You don't have to deal with the dealers
Let your boyfriend deal with the dealers
It only gets inconvenient
When you wanna get high alone
You don't have to know the right way home

It only gets kinda weird
When you wanna go home alone
You don't have to know the inspiring people
