[Verse 1]
You came up to me, persistent as can be
You've done this thing a hundred times
I can never tell, had me under your spell
I fell for all your stupid lines
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone told me
That I should know my worth
And then when you hold me
I know it shouldn't hurt
[Chorus]
And so I took the nights and heights
And I just threw 'em in the trash
They didn't matter at all
And I played my favorite song
Turned up the volume and I danced
I didn't care anymore
[Post-Chorus]
I'm better than I've ever looked
And boy, I never felt this cool
I saw you with that other girl
And all I thought was, ooh
I dodged a bullet with you
[Verse 2]
Selfish little mess, you hated all my friends
You always had to get your way
Every night at 3 AM
You had another reason why you couldn't stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone told me
That I should know my worth
And then when you hold me
I know it shouldn't hurt
[Chorus]
And so I took the nights and heights
And I just threw 'em in the trash
They didn't matter at all
And I played my favorite song
Turned up the volume and I danced
I didn't care anymore
[Post-Chorus]
I'm better than I've ever looked
And boy, I never felt this cool
I saw you with that other girl
And all I thought was, ooh
I dodged a bullet with you
[Bridge]
Dodged a bullet with you
[Chorus]
And so I took the nights and heights
And I just threw 'em in the trash
They didn't matter at all
And I played my favorite song
Turned up the volume and I danced
I didn't care anymore
[Post-Chorus]
I'm better than I've ever looked
And boy, I never felt this cool
I saw you with that other girl
And all I thought was, ooh
I dodged a bullet with you
