Attitude
Rona Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You always look the other way
Why do you hold your head up high
Every time you see my face
I find it odd the way
You never return my calls
You don't have to lie, sweetheart
Your fake smile says it all
I know you don't like me
You think you're so much better than who I am
But I'm not trying to be
One of your number one fans
And you can keep at this old routine
I'll keep trying to do the same damn thing
You can keep up this stupid little feud
But I think you need to get a better attitude
I can tell that you're full of yourself
Just by the smirk on your face
I can't wait for the day that someone'll finally put you in your place
And all your songs you've plagiarized off of top 40 hits
They're all about falling in love
But you wrote them in grade six
I know you don't like me
Think you're so much better than who I am
But I'm not exactly
One of your number one fans
And you can keep at this old routine
I'll keep trying to do the same damn thing
You can keep up this stupid little feud
But I think you need to get a better attitude
