Leighton sings about a person whom she seems to have feelings for who is largely obsessed with themselves. The lyrics pertain to somebody who is physically attractive but has little personality or emotional appeal to Leighton, yet their looks keep her a least a little bit interested.
[Verse 1]
Talk over the radio
That way everyone can hear
Louder than the stereo
Don't worry your head, my dear
I think it's hilarious
The way you talk about yourself
But don't tell that story again
[Chorus]
You're good for one thing
I can't help but calling you out
But you're so lovely
I can't behave myself
[Verse 2]
Look into the mirror
I know you're good at that
Don't be so insecure
As long as you shut your mouth
Take yourself so serious
Like you're talking for your health
But don't tell that story again
[Chorus]
You're good for one thing
I can't help but calling you out
But you're so lovely
I can't behave myself
[Bridge]
Pretty slow
Anybody home?
[Chorus]
You're good for one thing
I can't help but calling you out
But you're so lovely
I can't behave myself
You're good for one thing
I can't help but calling you out
But you're so lovely
I can't behave myself
