Pretty
Why don’t you call me
Silly
I’ve been waiting all Sunday for you
‘Cos there ain’t no school
Mondays aren’t blue
At least not for me it’s true
‘Cos I’ll get to see your pretty red shoes
And I’ll tell you tie your lace before you fall for
George who’ll never bump you up in the queue
Singin’ a laa la laa
Will you ever know this one’s for you
I’ll probably say it’s a joke, say it’s a poke
At how I’ve never fallen in love with a darlin’ like you
Laa la laa la lalala
Do you think this song’s a pretty clue
‘Cos my heart feels anew with something to pursue
Pretty certain this song will be hard to misconstrue
Princess
Are you having troubles during recess
With your work, I can make up evidences
Unless I’m scoring lower than you in every damn test
And I think it’s rather pointless
If I can’t charm you with my roses
And I find it a little bit senseless
That I’m skipping math lectures just to bust a melody with you
Singin’ a laa la laa
Will you ever know this one’s for you
I’ll probably say it’s a joke, say it’s a poke
At how I’ve never fallen in love with a darlin’ like you
Laa la laa la lalala
Do you think this song’s a pretty clue
‘Cos my heart feels anew with something to pursue
Pretty certain this song will be hard to misconstrue
Laa la laa
Is it smooth to write this for you
I only took half an hour, if I had superpowers
You’d have 48 new songs in a day about you
Laa la laa la lalala
Do you think this song’s a pretty clue
Just know that I’m conscious of my breath and I’m anxious
When I’m hangin’ with someone pretty like you
