"We can still be friends"   That's the consolation prize you gave me   In hushed tones over gourmet coffee   And I mean no offense   But you were quite a waste of time and money   Not to mention dignity   So don't get me wrong   I want you to be happy   As long as it's with me      One day you're gonna' want me   But it'll prob'ly be too late by then   One day you're gonna' want me   At least that's what I say to all my friends      Alright, so here's the plan:   You go ahead and keep your options open   While I stay here and lose all hope in love   And don't you understand?   I am lonely, but I need another friend like you need another compliment   Don't get me wrong   I want you to be happy   As long as it's with me      One day you're gonna' want me   But it'll prob'ly be too late by then   One day you're gonna' want me   At least that's what I say to all my friends      So thank you for leading me on   It's nice to feel attractive   Don't you agree?   So I hope someone hears this song   That thinks bitterness is sexy      One day you're gonna' want me   But it'll prob'ly be too late by then   One day you're gonna' want me   At least that's what I say to all my friends   One day you're gonna want me   But it'll prob'ly be too late by then   One day you're gonna' want me   At least that's what I say to all my friends
