Lyrics

You call me a friend but it’s always

On your time and

When you need it

You say you care but you don’t think of me

You say you’re sorry, you’re going through something lately

But that’s your excuse for your life

It’s you

Can’t think of anything else but yourself

It’s true

So obsessed with yourself you need help

I’ve been skipping your calls but then

You text to check in

To talk about yourself

I wonder if I am the last one left

You say you’re cursed, that you can’t ever catch a break, babe

How do I tell you what’s wrong?

It’s you

Can’t think of anything else but yourself

It’s true

So obsessed with yourself you need help

And perhaps here’s the answer

To cancel your banter

Set aside bad manners

Get the root of the pattern

It’s gotta be staggering

So simply flattening

Life’s just not flattering

When you’re the sole subject matter

What a relief

And what a sickness

It’s you

The only remaining excuse

It's the only way out of this loop

It’s you (It’s you!)

Can’t think of anything else but yourself

It’s true (It’s true!)

So obsessed with yourself you need help

(You're so obsessed you need help)

It’s you

Can’t think of anything else but yourself

It’s true

So obsessed with yourself, you need help!
