Who Else But Me?

[Intro]
(Yeah… mm-hmm)
Well I swore I’d learned my lesson… guess we’ll see

[Verse 1]
Mama said “Boy don’t touch that stove”
I touched it twice just to be sure though
Borrowed Dad’s truck, brought it back late
With a dent that looked like “oops” and fate

My brother said “Don’t text that girl”
I hit send and rocked my world
Now my phone’s blowin’ up like TNT
Who started that? Yeah… me

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t mean no harm, I just can’t see
The line ‘til I cross it accidentally

[Chorus]
Who else but me? (who else?)
Gets it wrong so perfectly
Trip, fall, laugh, repeat
That’s my recipe

Who else but me? (oh no)
Turns a spark to a third-degree
If bad luck’s got VIP seats
It’s savin’ one for me

[Verse 2]
Took a first date fishin’ by the lake
Dropped the ring… yeah, my mistake
Not hers—no, I jumped too fast
Now I’m swimmin’ after “almost last”

My buddy said “Man, don’t bet that game”
I doubled down, lost more than change
Now I owe him lunch for eternity
Ain’t that just like… me

[Pre-Chorus]
Good ideas wave, I wave back slow
Bad ones say “Hey”—I say “let’s go”

[Chorus]
Who else but me? (who else?)
Gets it wrong so naturally
Left, right, wrong street
Story of my week

Who else but me? (good grief)
Makes a mess so flawlessly
If there’s a wrong door with a key
It’s made for me

[Bridge]
(Yeah yeah)
I try to change, I really do
Next thing I know—déjà vu
But hey, at least I keep it fun
A trainwreck ridin’ in the sun

[Break]
(Oh no… not again)
(Wait… yep, again)

[Chorus]
Who else but me? (who else?)
Turns “just one” to “two or three”
Laugh it off eventually
That’s my therapy

Who else but me? (alright)
Still believes in “maybe”
If it’s dumb but feels carefree
Sign me up—it’s me

[Outro]
So if you’re lookin’ for a cautionary
Tale wrapped up in comedy
Just pull up a chair, watch and see…
Who else but me? (yeah… who else?)
