All of this time I planned I'd be patient and You would love me again You'd come to respect my mind and at last you'd find You could love me again And I have turned my whole world upside down Trying not to let you go Watching you walk away is like a fatal blow Whoa! Is that my name up on that list? Does someone know that I exist? Is this a mistake? Am I even awake? Pinch me now to make sure Ow! Yes, that's my name in black and white Maybe I'm doing something right Wow! I feel so much better than before Warner, sorry I've been a pest But I guess my best was not working with you But looks like I've found a cure And I so look forward to working with you What? Working with who? Hey, remember when we spent spring break In the hot tub every night We said nothing else could ever feel so right Well, this might! Seeing my name up on that list That beats the first time that we kissed You thought I was dumb But I think that somebody's judgment was poor Seeing my name in black and white It's like making love with you all night No wait, it feel so much better, hello, much better It's oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, much better 'Cause I am so much better than before Yes, she's so much better than before Yes, she's so much better than before Maybe she's what you prefer But hey, last year I was her Maybe you will change your mind But you might look up to find I've gone on to better things Better jobs or bigger rings I don't have the time to cry I'm too busy loving my name up on that list Kind of a cool, ironic twist Who else can I tell? Hoo! Wait, where's my cell? Mom will fall on the floor Hey mom! Look at my name in black and white Your daughter's doing something right I feel so much better I'll be there on Monday, 9 o'clock And we will see who walks the walk No, no, I can't wait, I will be there at 8 When they unlock the door Oh, oh! I'll even dress in black and white See, I have not begun to fight And you'll go, oh, much better and oh, much better And soon all y'all gotta know much better I am so much better I am so much better I am so much better than before!
