lyrics

Verse:
I wonder why you talk about me and say things you do.
You talking 'cause you're coy or do you just not have a clue?
'Cause honestly it's rude.
Why are you so rude?
I stare, you're standing in the corner acting like you're cool.
I know you wanna talk to me but you ain't got the tools.
I got you figured out. I got you figured out.
Oh you know.
Oh, you know.
Yeah you know - you'll never get it.

Chorus:
Oh, it's always nice to be - always nice to be
Sitting pretty
It never hurts to be - never hurts to be me
You want my life, you want my life, you want me
Oh, it's always nice to be
Sitting pretty

Verse:
I know you see me walking in my five-inch Jimmy Choos
I know you wanna touch me but you're nervous I'll refuse
I got your number, yeah
I got your number.
I can't believe I'm saying this but honestly it's cute.
Reading all your signals like you're ready to pursue me
What is there to lose? What is there to lose?
So you know.
You should know.
Yeah you should know - you might just get it.

Chorus:
Oh, it's always nice to be - always nice to be
Sitting pretty
It never hurts to be - never hurts to be me
You want my life, you want my life, you want me
Ooh, it's always nice to be
Sitting pretty
