The Man You Love

I can get close to you
I just have to go through
The man you love

He's not as smart as you
So I can charm him
Into sitting a little too close to me

And being a little too friendly
And flirty
And dirty
And unaware

He doesn't care for you
As much as you care for him
Or as much as I'd care for you

So it'll be so easy to do
Getting close to you
Through the man you love

I'll say I like all his favorite movies
And that I've read all his favorite books
And I'll quote his favorite tv shows to him
And unlike you, he'll love that
Because he's not interested in originality
And he has no interest
In deeper connections

He just wants giggles and a six pack
And I got that

And it might not be a nice thing to do
But I'm going to get close to you
Through the man you love

And if I have to
I'll make love to him
To break that bond
That you think you share
To force you to stop caring

And how do I lose really
When you don't love me anyway
At least it'll keep this asshole away

Could I hurt you like that?
Why shouldn't I
When you're hurting yourself worse

It's a curse watching you with him
And if we were a she and a he and a he
This wouldn't work at all

But you see, we're three he's
And so this'll be easy
Because your he isn't the brightest he, is he?

And I''ll do whatever I have to do
To get even an invisible inch closer to you
Even if it's through the man you love
