[Verse 1]
I remember when it all first began
We were tight right from the start
It wasn't long before you came on strong
Trying hard to win my heart (trying to win it)
I played hard to get but I couldn't help
I gave up my ironing
You were thoughtful
Careful not to hurt the relationship
[Pre-Chorus]
What happened to those days when
You used to be compa**ionate
Caring what I thought and said
So attentive gentleman?
Now it's hard to turn your head away from the TV set
Taking me for granted lately
Frankly, it's got to quit
[Chorus]
I feel underappreciated
Now girls, help me out
Because you know what I'm talking about, I say
I'm feeling underappreciated
For all the time and effort I have put in this commitment
[Verse 2]
Back to the beginning, to the very beginning
When our love was something new
Back when romance was important
Not just another thing to do
I was feeling high on love tonight
Thought I never come back down
Now it seems that you and me
Have lost our solid ground
[Pre-Chorus]
Half the time I realize
I seem to give more than I get
Funny how things seem to change
After a few years commitment
Used to talk for hours on end
About our dreams while we lay in bed
How I missed those days when you stayed awake
Now you roll over and snore instead
[Chorus]
I feel underappreciated (I feel)
Now girls, help me out
Because you know what I'm talking about, I say
I'm feeling underappreciated
For all the time and effort I have put in this commitment
[Bridge]
I miss those nice ma**ages
The long for closeness
The way you talk
How it turned me on
The thoughtfulness and the sweetest lips
I needed those days back
[Chorus]
I feel underappreciated
Now girls, help me out
Because you know what I'm talking about, I say
I'm feeling underappreciated
For all the time and effort I have put in this commitment
I feel underappreciated
If you feel me, sing with me
Come on, help me out
I'm feeling underappreciated
