Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I would never catch you talking shit online

When you're talking to my mom, you call her Mrs. Klein

Secure in our love, don't need me to post

We keep it on the low, get our Nobu to go

And pair it with the bottle of the cheapest wine

A girl like you is hard to find

You smile in pictures and work a 9-to-5

And buy me dinner every time I come home

Yeah, you run to the door

Never had this before

They don't make 'em like you anymore, no

They don't make 'em like you

All the girls, they act the same in La La Land

With the empty conversations, short attention spans (yeah)

On a few apps, to find a few dates

Never works out, can't Facetune a brain

But you look even better than your Instagram

A girl like you is hard to find

You smile in pictures and work a 9-to-5

And buy me dinner every time I come home

Yeah, run to the door

Never had this before

They don't make 'em like you anymore, no

They don't make 'em like you anymore 'cause

I've been around the world, and I looked, and I'm sure

They don't make 'em like you anymore, no

(They don't make 'em)

(They don't make 'em like you)

I've settled for less, and I've sold myself short (sold myself short, sold myself short)

With all of the ones that I've been with before (that I've been with before)

But can you blame me?

A girl like you is hard to find

You smile in pictures and work a 9-to-5

And buy me dinner every time I come home

Yeah, you run to the door

Never had this before

They don't make 'em like you anymore, no

They don't make 'em like you anymore 'cause

I've been around the world, and I looked, and I'm sure

They don't make 'em like you

Anymore, no
