The Offspring – Self Esteem – 1994

    Paroles

    I wrote her off for the tenth time today
    And practiced all the things I would say
    But she came over
    I lost my nerve
    I took her back and made her dessert

    Now I know I’m being used
    That’s okay because I like the abuse
    I know she’s playing with me
    That’s okay ’cause I’ve got no self-esteem

    Oh yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah

    We make plans to go out at night
    I wait till two then I turn out the light
    This rejection’s got me so low
    If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

    Oh yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah

    When she’s saying that she wants only me
    Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
    When she’s saying that I’m like a disease
    Then I wonder how much more I can spend
    Well I guess I should stick up for myself
    But I really think it’s better this way
    The more you suffer
    The more it shows you really care, right, yeah, yeah

    Now I’ll relate this a little bit
    That happens more than I’d like to admit
    Late at night she knocks on my door
    She’s drunk again and looking to score
    Now I know I should say no
    But that’s kind of hard when she’s ready to go
    I may be dumb
    But I’m not a dweeb
    I’m just a sucker with no self-esteem

    Oh yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yeah yeah

    When she’s saying, oh, that she wants only me
    Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
    When she’s saying, oh, that I’m like a disease
    Then I wonder how much more I can spend
    Well, I guess I should stick up for myself
    But I really think it’s better this way
    The more you suffer
    The more it shows you really care
    Right, yeah, yeah, yeah
