Lyrics
I am the hottest thing you ever will see You know I'm something it ain't easy to be I am the neatest thing that ever hit town There isn't anything that could bring me down Don't care If you really wanna hang around Don't care 'Cause I am the neatest thing in town Don't care If you really wanna stick around I don't care If you even wanna put me down The girls are always trying to settle me down They never guess I'm only fooling around My only worry is my humility It dampens all my heavy artillery Don't care If you really wanna hang around Don't care 'Cause I am the neatest thing in town Don't care If you really wanna stick around I don't care If you even wanna put me down Don't care no no Don't care no no Don't care no no Don't care no no You know I'm fooling with my fake ID So you don't need to check my history You know I'm something it ain't easy to be There isn't anyone who I'd rather be Don't care If you really wanna hang around Don't care 'Cause I am the neatest thing in town Don't care If you really wanna stick around I don't care If you even wanna put me down Don't care no no 'Cause I am the neatest thing in town Don't care if you really wanna stick around I don't care if you even wanna put me down
