I Think I’ll Buy Myself Flowers
Writers: Kris Tiscareno, Sundi Jo Graham, Brad Hacker, Patrick Adams
Verse One:
Girl, I’m done being your wishing well
Today’s the day I break this spell
Of being trapped underneath your thumb
With your high heel dreams and your nose
stuck up
Pre-Chorus
Cause if you lowered expectations you
might appreciate carnations
I’m starting to feel empowered
Chorus:
I think I’ll buy myself flowers
Hit the spa for an hour
Think I’ll buy myself flowers
New pair of shoes and a shiny, diamond ring
Just what’s so bad ‘bout being treated like a
queen by a guy like me?
Flowers
Verse Two:
Don’t get me wrong, I like your new outfit
But now and then be more considerate
I’ll hang the stars and make your world turn
For a little kindness in return
Pre-Chorus
So if you can’t reciprocate let’s change
positions on this date
I got purchasing powers
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Now’s the time for some give and take
Not quite convinced that it ain’t too late
Spotlight on me feels good for a change
Could you put another umbrella in my
drink?
Verse Three:
I’m not one for holding onto a grudge
But, girl, a man can only take so much
I’ll offer you the moon just one more time
But take it now before I change my mind
Pre-Chorus
It’s a good year for the roses, but there ain’t
no time for posers
I’m knocking down your hightower
Repeat Chorus
