My Man on Willpower Lyrics – Sabrina Carpenter
My Man on Willpower Lyrics
[Verse 1], He’s clingy, He’s loving, He always initiates, Calling and touching, 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’), Pondering (schemin’), What life without me’d be like.
Can i return him, Give 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 getting 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 working, He doesn’t have time for me, My slutty pajamas, Not tempting him in the least.
What in the fucked-up romantic, Dark comedy is this nightmare lately?, Yeah okay okay, He’s on his big journey to find, A little zest of life and his sense of purpose, But why?.
[Pre-Chorus] , 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 getting 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.
[Outro] , No oh, My man’s in touch with his emotions, My man won’t touch me with a 20’foot pole.
My man’s forgotten his devotion, Where he’s gone?, God only knows, (Where he’s gone?, God only knows).
