I’d Rather Be Dumb

[Chorus: Marlhy]
I’d rather be dumb
Like a child with a gun
Shootin' my shot till I get ya I promise I will
I promise I betcha, betcha
You take your time
But in the end you’ll be mine
'Cause you ain’t that dumb
You know I’m the one
I’d rather be

[Verse 1: Marlhy]
Everybody hates you
Say I shouldn’t date you
But I take the bait it’s just for a
Night turn into weekends quickly into seasons
Got a million reasons why I should
Really leave your ass, put your lies on blast
Know it couldn’t last but it’s so
Hard to be alone seventeen and grown
I just wanna know why I would

[Chorus: Marlhy]
Rather be dumb
Like a child with a gun
Shootin' my shot till I get ya I promise I will
I promise I betcha, betcha
You take your time
But in the end you’ll be mine
'Cause you ain’t that dumb
You know I’m the one
I’d rather be

[Verse 2: Marlhy]
Cross my heart and hope to die
I took an oath I’d never cry
So why do I
Always drive up on the 101
Just so you can be a hit and run
I can feel this seesaw up and down
What goes round will come on back around
Breaking me to pieces but I love the feeling
Bet you wanna know why I would

[Chorus: Marlhy]
Rather be dumb
Like a child with a gun
Shootin' my shot till I get ya I promise I will
I promise I betcha, betcha
You take your time
But in the end you’ll be mine
'Cause you ain’t that dumb
You know I’m the one
I’d rather be

[Verse 3: Kellin Quinn]
Practice makes perfect
I’ll try 'cause you're worth it
You’re all the things I wish that I could be
You see the things in me that I can’t see
And I know I sound dumb
I think you might be the one and I let you get away, damn
I know that I have loved you carelessly
I don’t know why you waste your time on me
But give me one more chance I guarantee
I’ll make you see, I’ll make you see
I could be that love
(you know I'm the one)
Could be the boy you dreamed of eventually

[Chorus: Marlhy]
I’d rather be dumb
Like a child with a gun
Shootin' my shot till I get ya I promise I will
I promise I betcha, betcha
You take your time
But in the end you’ll be mine
'Cause you ain’t that dumb
You know I’m the one
I’d rather be
