lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some say I’m no good at expressing
The heart worn on my sleeve is my sense of fashion
Maybe it’s time I tried something a little different
Now the penny’s dropped and I’m a girl on a mission

[Pre]
I’m not saying that I won’t take your advice
But I’m not paying, waiting 6 months down the line for someone
To be claiming that they are qualified to change my mind
Let’s compromise

[Chorus]
I think I know what’s good for me
A little bit of retail therapy
My mama says I gotta tread carefully
So I bought new shoes with urgency
I think it’s a conspiracy
That life makes sense in your twenties
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy

[Verse 2]
Can’t pay to be happy with your money
Well that’s a shame, have I just saved it all for nothing?
Won’t watch it go to waste, so maybe I’ll buy a little something
When the penny drops, will I still feel how I feel?

[Pre]
I’m not saying that I was wrong, you were right
But I’m praying, hoping I won’t pay the price for trying
Now I’m swaying from left to right, I can’t decide
So let’s rewind

[Chorus]
I think I know what’s good for me
A little bit of retail therapy
My mama says I gotta tread carefully
So I bought new shoes with urgency
I think it’s a conspiracy
That life makes sense in your twenties
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy

[Bridge]
I know you want what’s best for me
I’ll admit defeat, but it’s a victory in my eyes
I’ll go and talk to somebody
Who can make it right, but for one last time

[Chorus]
I think I know what’s good for me
A little bit of retail therapy
My mama says I gotta tread carefully
So I bought new shoes with urgency
I think it’s a conspiracy
That life makes sense in your twenties
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy

[Outro]
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
