[Intro: VVAVES]
Mmm, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1: VVAVES]
If you always get off easy
You won't ever learn
Every time you leave me
I don't say a word
Letting you control me
Undermine my worth
You only want the old me
Want me when I'm hurt
[Pre-Chorus: VVAVES]
What kind of example do I set?
Feeding the monsters in my head...
Get outta here, get out my bed, eh-yeah!
What kind of example do I set?
Taking you back, oh, this again
What kind of example do I set?
[Chorus: VVAVES]
Fuck boys like you
Fuck boys like you
If you always get away with shit
You shouldn't guess
I let you think it's cool
Fuck boys like you
What I've been through
Fuck boys like... you!
[Verse 2: Iggy Azalea]
Fuck dealing with a fuckboy
Money talks and this bag? Makes too much noise
Where the lame shit start is where you loose me
It’s I with the two G's, bitch, I’m Gucci!
So pick it up before this foreign switch lanes on you
Fast livin' this pace a big change for you
I done dealt with your type back to back
I'ma turn up before I turn back to that
‘Cause the patience for dealing with you? I ain't got it in me
But my paycheck stubs say I'm still getting plenty
In Atlanta, had to switch out the wraith for the Hemi
Sitting pretty instead of stupid and silly, look
[Pre-Chorus: VVAVES]
What kind of example do I set?
Feeding the monsters in my head...
Get outta here, get out my bed, eh-yeah!
What kind of example do I set?
Taking you back, oh, this again
What kind of example do I set?
[Chorus: VVAVES]
Fuck boys like you
Fuck boys like you
If you always get away with shit
You shouldn't guess
I let you think it's cool
Fuck boys like you
What I've been through
Fuck boys like... you!
[Bridge: VVAVES]
I've had enough of this
I have to call it quits
My heart can't handle it
But I come back again
Don't think I haven't learned
This love will leave me burnt
I know you're bad for me
So get the fuck out of my world!
[Outro: VVAVES]
Fuck boys like you, oh, yeah
Fuck boys like you, ooh, ah, ah
If you always get away with shit
You shouldn't guess
I let you think it's cool
Fuck boys like you
What I've been through
Fuck boys like... you!
Fuck boys like you, oh, yeah
Fuck boys like you, ooh, ah, ah
If you always get away with shit
You shouldn't guess
I let you think it's cool
Fuck boys like you
What I've been through
Fuck boys like... you!
