Boy Problems Lyrics

If you're gonna go then go
She said to me on the phone
So tired of hearin' all your boy problems
If you're gonna stay then stay
He's not gonna change anyway
So tired of hearin' all your boy problems

And I know that she's right
And I should not be offended
That I know what it looks like
From the outside
And I know that she's right
And I should not be offended, yeah
I know what it looks like
From the outside, from the outside

Boy problems, who's got 'em?
I've got 'em too
Boy trouble, we've got double
Don't know what to do
I think I broke up with my boyfriend today
And I don't really care
I've got worse problems
I broke up with my boyfriend
I think I broke up with my boyfriend today
And I don't really care
I've got worse problems
I broke up with my boyfriend, yeah

"Carly, gotta let it go"
She said to me on the phone
"So tired of hearin' all your boy problems
It could be the perfect day
You'll just make it rain anyway
So tired of hearin' all your boy problems"

And I know that she's right
And I should not be offended
Yeah, I know what it looks like
From the outside
And I know that she's right
And I should not be offended, yeah
I know what it looks like
From the outside, from the outside

Boy problems, who's got 'em?
I've got 'em too
Boy trouble, we've got double
Don't know what to do
I think I broke up with my boyfriend today
And I don't really care
I've got worse problems
I broke up with my boyfriend
I think I broke up with my boyfriend today
And I don't really care
I've got worse problems
I broke up with my boyfriend, yeah

What's worse?
Losin' a lover or losin' your best friend, oh
What's worse is when you discover
You're not good for each other
She's been giving, you've been taking, taking, taking

Boy problems, who's got 'em?
I've got 'em too
Boy trouble, we've got double
Don't know what to do (don't know what to do)
I think I broke up with my boyfriend today
And I don't really care
I've got worse problems
I broke up with my boyfriend
I think I broke up with my boyfriend today
And I don't really care
I've got worse problems
I broke up with my boyfriend, yeah

Boy problems, who's got 'em?
I've got 'em too
Boy trouble, we've got trouble
Don't know what to do
Boy problems, who's got 'em?
I've got 'em too
Boy trouble, you've got trouble
Don't know what to do
Boy problems, who's got 'em?
I've got 'em too
Boy trouble
