Lower Your Expectations Chords & Lyrics - Bo Burnham

[VERSE]
[E]You want a guy that's sweet
[C#m]A guy that's tough
[C#m]A feminist who likes to pay for stuff
[A]The kinda guy that gets along with your friends
[B]Without being attracted to any of them
[E]A good boy, a bad boy, a good bad boy
[C#m]A half good half bad half boy
[A]Loves your brother sensitive but not weak and
[B]Is a great lover calls your mother on the weekend
[E]Then you might think tha[A]t this guy only exists in your m[C#m]ind
Well guess what
[B]You're right

[CHORUS]
[E]If you want love
[C#m]Lower your expectations a few
[A]Cause Prince Charming would never settle[B] for you
[E]If you want love
[C#m]Just pick a guy and love him
[A]And if he's got a thing for feet
[B]Say fuck it, sweep me off them

[VERSE]
[E]You want a girl that's nice
[C#m]A girl that's not
[C#m]Obsessed with her looks but is insanely hot
[A]The kinda girl that you can show to your folks
[B]Loves the movies that you like and always laughs at your jokes
[E]A real girl, a hot girl, a really hot girl
[C#m]A brand new really hot real doll
[A]Wants to impress you doesn't care if you notice
[B]And only ever uses you to tickle her throat with

[E]Then you might think that this g[A]irl only exists in your [C#m]mind
[B]She's real
But last week
She died

[CHORUS]
[E]If you want love
[C#m]Lower your expectations a lot
[A]You might think your dick is a gift I promise it[B]'s not
[E]If you want love

[C#m]Just pick a girl and love her
[A]Then whip out your dick and let the
[B]Girl you love decline the offer

[E]I don't want a neat freak I don't want a slob
[C#m]Or somebody with bedhead and a dead-end job
[A]Cause I won't settle for less
[B]Than perfect
[E]Want perfect children, a perfect life
[C#m]Perfect husband or a perfect wife
[A]But deep down I know
[B]I don't deserve it

[Mute]

But
[E]We all deserve love
[C#m]Even on the days when we aren't our best
[A]Cause we all suck
[B]But love can make us suck less
[E]We all deserve love
[C#m]It's the very best part of being alive
[A]And I would know
[B]I'm almost twenty five
