Can you tell me why
It is that I
Was “Mr. Right” for so damn long
Then suddenly
I came to be
In your eyes “Mr. So-Damn-Wrong”
I recall a time
You said that I’m
The man you’d call “Mr. Perfect-Fit”
The man of your dreams
But now it seems
You consider me “Mr. He-Ain’t-Shit”
When I felt bad
You seemed truly glad
That I was “Mr. Mope & Pout”
But what’s so sad
Is it seems you’re mad
Because I’m no longer “Mr. Down & Out”
That’s only because
For a long time I was
Caught up in being “Mr. So-Into-You”
‘Til I got up the nerve
To say you didn’t deserve
The likes of “Mr. See-How-Good-I’ve-Been-To-You”
Now I have to say
To my own dismay
I wasn’t always the sensational “Mr. Finance”
But on most nights
Under low lights
I became the insatiable “Mr. Romance”
I had to spend
Many days on end
Trying to figure out this “Mister Mystery”
So it took a while
To bring a smile
To the tear-streaked face of “Mister Misery”
But that’s the past
We didn’t last
Because you couldn’t brave “Mr. Stormy-Weather”
You should have hung in there
See the sky is now clear
Because I’m finally “Mr. Has-His-Shit-Together”
