Overrated
Jacqueline Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's wrong with being overrated
What's wrong with being overrated
Tell me I'm your favourite one
Even if it's not from the heart
Isn't that complicated
Isn't that complicated
Sometimes a little lie can make my day
Honey, this game ain't hard to play
I'm looking for small talk
I'm looking for love
Longing for kisses
Kisses and hugs
Now I'm looking for shoptalk
Now I'm looking for sense
Get away from that bar and give me romance
What's wrong with being overrated
What's wrong with being overrated
Tell me I'm your favourite one
Even if it's not from the heart

Sometimes a little lie can make my day
Honey, this game ain't hard to play
I'm looking for small talk
I'm looking for love
Longing for kisses
Kisses and hugs
Now I'm looking for shoptalk
Now I'm looking for sense
Get away from that bar, let's dance
Everybody, overrate me
What's wrong with being overrated
Tell me I'm your favourite one
Even if it's not from the heart
Isn't that complicated
Isn't that complicated
Sometimes a little lie can make my day
Honey, this game ain't hard to play
Lalalalala...




Looking for love sweet love
...
