Lyrics The Offspring

The Offspring

Self Esteem

I wrote her off for the tenth time today,

And practiced all the things I would say,

But she came over,

I lost my nerve,

I took her back and made her dessert,

Now I know I'm being used,

That's okay man cause I like the abuse,

I know she's playing with me,

That's okay cause I've got no self esteem,

R1: Oooh yeah...

We make plans to go out at night,

I wait till 2 then I turn out the light,

All this rejection's got me so low,

If she keeps it up I just might tell her so,

R1: Oooh yeah...

R2: When she's saying that she wants only me

Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

When she's saying that I'm like a disease

Then I wonder how much more I can spend

Well I guess I should stick up for myself

But I really think it's better this way

The more you suffer

The more it shows you really care Right?

Now I'll relate this a little bit

That happens more than I'd like to admit

Late at night she knocks on my door

Drunk again and looking to score

Now I know I should say no

But that's kind of hard when she's ready to go

I may be dumb

But I'm not a dweeb

I'm just a sucker with no self esteem
