Intro G A Am C
G A Am
Busy body, busy man
C G
So busy being everybody's friend
A Am
That he's unlikely to understand
C G
Why he's feeling all alone again
Em Am
And before the party ends
D G
Then another one begins
Em Am
You better go and show your face
D G
To ever get a hold of him
G A Am
Lucky lady, he's your man?
C G
I hope at least he takes his time while you're in bed
A Am
Or does he just talk about himself instead
C G
While he's pulling full steam ahead?
Em Am
When you're so lonesome you could cry
D G
Well he'll be there to lend an ear
Em Am
But to be clear it's only one
D G
Because the other's occupied
G A Am C
Certified dad-bod master manipulator
G A Am C
Mister Never Misses A Scene (oh, like a scenester!)
G A Am C
He wants it all so whenever I call
G A Am C
I am never, never the priority
G A Am
Busy body, busy man
C G
So busy being everybody's friend
A Am
That he's unlikely to understand
C G
Why he's feeling all alone again
