This song is about a girl who Grace Petrie was friends with and was romantically interested in however this girl is straight and cannot reciprocate these feelings.
[Verse 1]
Another Friday night when your Plan A has fallen through
A Tinder date that sounded great was too good to be true, I guess
Besides love of adventure, sense of humour, zest for life
He just forgot to mention the new baby or the wife
Yeah, what a dick
[Verse 2]
But there's no need to be lonesome when you've got the next best thing
So you block him on your socials and you give me a ring
And say you're in need of some sympathy, some sushi and Netflix
You know I'm always free for dinner when they bail on you at six
[Chorus]
And I will be the best I can
I will be the best I can
I will be the best I can
But you won't choose me over the last man on earth
[Verse 3]
And how am I back here again, I've learned so many times
That I've run out of melodies and I've run out of rhymes
And I know this way lies insanity, I've seen it all before
But I know next time you need me I'll be right there at your door
[Chorus]
And I will be the best I can (The best I can)
I will be the best I can (The best I can)
I will be the best I can
But you won't choose me over the last man on earth
[Verse 4]
And after all the chasing when you're tiring of this life
And you pick the least worst option and consent to be his wife
I'll plan the hen do in Chicago, I will be there at the altar
And you can be my Santiago though I can't be your Peralta
[Chorus]
But I can be the best I can (The best I can)
I can be the best I can (The best I can)
I can be the best I can
And you still won't choose me over the last man on earth
[Verse 5]
Sometimes at last orders we've both had too much to drink
And you look at me for too long in a way that makes me think
You sometimes wish that things were different and it sometimes makes you sad
That I treat you better than the best boyfriends you've ever had
[Chorus]
And I can be the best I can
I can be the best I can
I can be the best I can
But you still won't choose me over the last man
[Chorus]
And I can be the best I can (The best I can)
I will be the best I can (The best I can)
I can be the best I can
But you won't choose me over the last man
[Chorus]
And I can be the best I can (The best I can)
I will be the best I can (The best I can)
I will be the best I can
And you won't choose me
And darling don't you know you'll never lose me
Not to the last man
[Chorus]
And I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
And you won't choose me over the last man (The last man on earth)
[Chorus]
And I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
And you won't choose me over the last man (The last man on earth)
[Chorus]
And I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
I can be the best I can (You wouldn't choose me over the last man on earth)
And you won't choose me over the last man on earth (The last man on earth)
