Contention
You've got a penchant for
Reinventing the wheel
When it comes to describing
the perfect day
When you tell your companions
that its so damn lovely
That they bend and break
To every word that you say.

You think you're lucky that you're so surrounded
By the kinds of guys that you've all but grounded
And they think they're lucky that they've got your attention
But it's my contention that you think that you're such a perfect girl.

You've got an interesting way
Of saying thank you
By taking their hands
And leading them astray
When they all speak kindly
Of the way you treat them
Until someone new catches your attention
Before the curtain falls, you push them away.

[Chorus]

They've got the same sad story
About the girl that was perfect
Who had everything that they'd ever need.
They've got the same sad story
About the girl who was a chameleon
Who changed before their eyes.

[Chorus]
