I should be at home, I should be alone

Instead of convincing somebody that I'm gonna call

When the morning comes

I should settle down, make my mama proud

Said she's been wanting grand babies, I've just been practicing how

What?

If you wanna dance with me, I'll spin you right around

Hand on your hip and dip you down, down, down

Baby, don't ya fall for me, I'll tell you right now

You're gonna hate me when we hit the ground

Baby, I'm a project, loving me's a mistake

Find another prospect, save yourself the heartbreak

Think you're gonna fix me, think we're making progress

You'll be broken with me somewhere in the process

Baby, I'm a project

You should leave me now, take an easy out

If you need persuading, then baby, just ask around

It's a little town

You should think again, listen to your friends

I got more to work on than I would like to admit

Yeah

If you wanna dance with me, I'll spin you right around

Hand on your hip and dip you down, down, down

Baby, don't ya fall for me, I'll tell you right now

You're gonna hate me when we hit the ground

Baby, I'm a project, loving me's a mistake

Find another prospect, save yourself the heartbreak

Think you're gonna fix me, think we're making progress

You'll be broken with me somewhere in the process

Baby, I'm a project

Now stop, take a look at yourself

Put that fairy tale bullshit back on the shelf

I know you like guys that you think you can help

But I ain't gonna be a notch on your little tool belt

If you're looking for love, you ain't looking for me

If you're lookin' for a good time, hold my drink

We can finish this song, let me find my keys

Go home, get to working on this project

Loving me's a mistake

Find another prospect, save yourself the heartbreak

Think you're gonna fix me, think we're making progress

You'll be broken with me somewhere in the process

Baby, I'm a project
