Nothing Nice To Say lyrics

[Intro]
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em

[Verse 1]
When I was younger I was told
You can do anything when you grow old
As long as you work hard, play smart;
Think with your head, but always follow your heart
What a nice daydream I was sold

[Pre-Chorus]
You say the way I behave should be toned down but I won't
'Cause I know I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't

[Chorus]
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
'Cause I'd rather be myself than change for someone else
Change for someone else
And you say "Be more like a lady"
But I'll take a leaf from the woman who raised mе
Time's up; better bе on your way
If you've got nothing nice to say

[Verse 2]
Don't get me wrong I'm not just tryin' to find
Any excuse to bring this up all the time
And I would be rich now if I had a pound
For every time they say they're messin' around
[Pre-Chorus]
And you say "I mean no offence" but turns out it still kinda hurts
So how 'bout a compliment 'cause treat 'em mean to keep us keen won't work

[Chorus]
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
'Cause I'd rather be myself than change for someone else
Change for someone else
And you say "be more like a lady"
But I'll take a leaf from the woman who raised me
Time's up; better be on your way
If you've got nothing nice to say

[Bridge]
Woah, yeah yeah
Cover up but show some skin
If I run like a girl, does that mean I won't win?
And should I always smile just to make ya feel better
Does it make me a b*tch if I try to reject ya?
I'm a boss
So don't call me "Honey"
I've been doing your job while I'm makin' less money
At the top ya know there's room for so many
But I still have to say "Time's up" in 2020
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
'Cause I'd rather be myself than change for someone else
Change for someone else
And you say "Be more like a lady"
I'll say "Good luck trying to change me"
Time's up; better be on your way (Better be on your way)
If you have nothing nice to say

[Outro]
Ooh, mmm
If you've got nothing nice to say
