"The Problems Last" lyrics - THE PLAYING FAVORITES

It's hard to see through your attitude
It's hard to breath in your altitude
I can't believe what she'll let you do to her
You come home like a fighter plane
Instead of bombs you'll be dropping names
Well she can live with the trauma, but I can't hang

She doesn't even know the ones your naming
Isn't it the same old plot with a brand new cast
Maybe you're the one you should be blaming
When you take back the friends you bought but the problems last.

So impressed with your wallet size
She'll overlook your hollow eyes
But I'm the one who gets to hear her cry on the phone.

She doesn't even know the ones your naming
Isn't it the same old plot with a brand new cast
Maybe you're the one you should be blaming
When you take back the friends you bought but the problems last

Why can't you see there's no way to buy her out of pain
She doesn't need your financial Novocaine
It's just another case of rich guy gets the girl
You buy her everything but I give her the world

And when your thing with her runs out of gas
And you're lurking somewhere in her past
Just remember who's the one that made her laugh

She doesn't even know the ones your naming
Isn't it the same old plot with a brand new cast
Maybe you're the one you should be blaming
When you take back the friends you bought but the problems last
