Don't act cool when you don't get it
Can't you tell where this is headed?
I'm not you, and you can't stand it
All I got you take for granted
We both know that we were
Never gonna hit it off
I don't know about you, but we got to end it
You know it's true if you're mama said it
So

Don't take this personally
But you should be somebody else
Don't make this hard on me
I'm already hard on myself
You know it don't feel right
I know I know I know I ain't your type, yeah
Don't take this out on me
'cause you should be somebody else
Somebody else, you should be you
Should be somebody else, yeah
I've been too hard on myself, you should
Be you should be somebody else, yeah

Slow down, it's not rocket science
Can't you see what I'm implying?
I'm bad luck, and you're bad timing
All my friends think you're not trying, oh
We both know that we were
Never gonna hit it off
You're stressed out and I know you're lying
Tears don't fall
But I know you're cryin' now

Don't take this personally
But you should be somebody else
Don't make this hard on me
I'm already hard on myself
You know we can't work it
I know, I know, I know it ain't perfect
Yeah don't take this out on me
'cause you should be somebody else
Somebody else, you should be you
Should be somebody else, yeah
I've been too hard on myself, you should
Be you should be somebody else, yeah

What was I thinking?
I can't hear over everyone, everyone else
Everyone, everyone, everyone else
Now we both know that we were
Never gonna hit it off
But don't let me take all the credit
You know it's true if you're mama said it
So

Don't take this personally
But you should be somebody else
Don't make this hard on me
I'm already hard on myself
You know it don't feel right
I know I know I know I ain't your type, yeah
Don't take this out on me
'cause you should be somebody else
Somebody else, you should be you
Should be somebody else, yeah
I've been too hard on myself, you should
Be you should be somebody else, yeah
