Hop to Another SongI met him at a party,
I think he talked too much.
He wasn’t smart or funny,
I convinced myself he was.
He had a great apartment
and a car his parents bought.
I thought that he was perfect
and now his number’s blocked.
Took a couple months (took a couple months)
but now I am secure, (now I am secure)
I am so evolved, (I am so evolved)
now I ask for more and more and more and more and more…
I won’t settle for a guy with a fake job,
he seems so desperate for lovin’ but baby I’m not.
Gave my heart with zero stipulations,
now I take careful considеration.
I’m not kissin’ any boy that is passive,
their indecision is painfully unattractivе.
Past mistakes are just new information –
these days I’ve got expectations.
So I hit the new year like a single girl at a Vegas spot,
rockin’ my party dress with a little luck and an open heart.
Yeh I’ve got hope, yeh I’ve got drive, I will not lose my faith,
don’t think my future husband’s at this stop in Silver Lake.
But in a couple months (in a couple months)
a man will be procured, (this man will be procured)
he will be evolved, (he will be evolved)
and I will be adored, adored, adored, adored, adored…
I won’t settle for a guy with a fake job,
he seems so desperate for lovin’ but baby I’m not.
Gave my heart with zero stipulations,
now I take careful considеration.
I’m not kissin’ any boy that is passive,
their indecision is painfully unattractivе.
Past mistakes are just new information –
these days I’ve got expectations.
I’ve got big expectations,
I’ve got real big expectations.
I’ve got big expectations,
I’ve got real big expectations.
She’s got big expectations,
she’s got real big expectations.
She’s got big expectations,
she’s got real big expectations.
I won’t settle for a guy with a fake job,
he seems so desperate for lovin’ but baby I’m not. (baby I’m not)
Gave my heart with zero stipulations,
now I take careful considеration. (I take, I take)
I’m not kissin’ any boy that is passive,
their indecision is painfully unattractivе.
Past mistakes are just new information –
these days I’ve got expectations.
