[Verse 1] I was nine and talking to God in the shower I knew he was busy, said "Sorry to bother But why am I so bad at being pretty like my mother?" I wanted to please her Guess I've always been a people pleaser [Chorus] I tried to be quiet, play nice But I knew I wasn't doing it right And I cried, wiped my eyes, and then smiled 'Cause they didn't know I was living a lie I don't know when it happened But I don't wanna be your cheer captain [Verse 2] I shouldn't have called, I know he's probably busy And when he fu*ks me over I'll say that I'm sorry And then I'll take it all off so he says that he wants me 'Cause I'm a people pleaser [Verse 3] And now he's doing lines with the boys on a Monday Showed up at my house, all strung out, like, a day late Watched his stupid band at the club, no one else came I'm a people pleaser but I don't want to be her [Chorus] I tried to be quiet, play nice But I knew I wasn't doing it right And I cried, wiped my eyes, and then smiled 'Cause they didn't know I was living a lie I don't know when it happened But I don't wanna be your cheer captain [Outro] How did I let it happen? I don't wanna be your cheer captain I was so sad then I don't wanna be your cheer captain Wish that I knew then That I don't wanna be your cheer captain
