Numpty

Lyrics

Hey, la, la, la
 Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
 If the cement don't stick
 But I've been told
 That it only gets harder from there!
 Hmm, now that I'm young I just do what I do
 I don't second guess too much
 Shred my ties and I'm not that wise
 I'm not all grown up as such.
 But all the talk about the ring and the baby
 Gets me every time
 Am I big enough, strong enough to walk along your line?
 Yeah, baby
 Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
 If the cement don't stick
 But I've been told
 That it only gets harder from there!
 You see, I'm always on the hustle
 That I don't know just how good I get it
 That it's plenty of men out there with money and muscle
 Look at these hips, baby, don't you forget them
 Oh, but the curls will go, the money will spend
 What we left within the end?
 She's more than happy, she's taken her play
 I'm saying, 'who's that bitch with my second name?'
 Oh, he's building a house so we can fall at the first brick
 If the cement don't stick
 But I've been told
 That it only gets harder from there!
 Yeah, baby, truth be told
 I'm only trying to keep my head above the water
 Responsibility, turn on monogamy
 I'm not a father, child
 Are you a mother ... you
 Uh, my pride and joy
 Yeah, you, you are my pride and joy!
 Oh, building a house so we can fall at the first brick
 If the cement don't stick
 But I've been told
 That it only gets harder from there!
 Yeah, baby
 Building a house so we can fall at the first brick
 If the cement don't stick
 But I've been told
 That it only gets harder from there!
