Potential Self

Hey, that's a real nice purse
Should spark jealousy in all the other girls
Hey, that's a real nice dress
Now every man around here's thinking about sex
You got beautiful new hair
But there's a stylist much richer somewhere
And what a lovely shiny car
If it were mine I'd make payments 'til 3004

Did you pretend not to see
What I like to think
That you'd do it for me
But I'm just not cool enough

I got so much Potential
But you don't give a damn about Potential
Yeah, the future's inconsequential
I guess I'll go alone
I got so much Potential
But you don't give a damn about Potential
Until the Benz and friends are not rentals
I guess I'll go home alone

Hey, that's a nice new nose
I guess you cut it off to cut down on the coke (habit)
And what a fancy new chest
Maybe later me and the boys can play b-ball with one breast (grab it)
You drop a grand on a make-up kit
But most men would probably dig you better without it
The most baffling part
Is that you work so hard
To fuck celebrities
Just so you can name drop

Did you pretend not to see
What I like to think
That you'd do it for me
But I'm just not cool enough

I got so much Potential
But you don't give a damn about Potential
Yeah, the future's inconsequential
I guess I'll go alone
I got so much Potential
But you don't give a damn about Potential
Until the Benz and friends are not rentals
I guess I'll go home alone
