My Man on Willpower Lyrics

[Verse 1] He's clingy, he's loving, he always initiates Callin' and touchin', it feels like just yesterday He wanted all four of my personalities Now I don't recognize this [Pre-Chorus] Stranger (Stranger) danger (Danger) There in my bed at night Wide-eyed (Dreamin'), ponderin' (Schemin') What life without me'd be like Can I return it, get back the version I like? This one's bullshit, baby [Chorus] My man on his willpower is something I don't understand He fell in love with self-restraint and now it's gettin' out of hand He used to be literally obsessed with me I'm suddenly the least sought after girl in the land Oh, my man on his willpower Is something I don't under, something I don't understand [Verse 2] He's busy, he's workin', he doesn't have time for me My slutty pajamas not temptin' him in the least What in the fucked up romantic dark comedy Is this nightmare lately? [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, okay, okay, he's on his big journey to find A little zest of life, a new sense of purpose, but why? I'm right here (Right here), I'm waving (Hello) The joke can be over now You're so silly, baby [Chorus] My man on his willpower is something I don't understand He fell in love with self-restraint and now it's gettin' out of hand He used to be literally obsessed with me I'm suddenly the least sought after girl in the land Oh, my man on his willpower Is something I don't under, something I don't understand [Bridge] No, oh My man's in touch with his emotions My man won't touch me with a twenty-foot pole My man's forgotten his devotion Where he's gone, God only knows [Outro] Where he's gone, God only knows
