Intro Verse I always was the one to leave I had no rehearsal For this role reversal Pre-Chorus 1 Say nice things about Detroit The way you left you were a big big jerk There I was anticipating Some kind of love I'm still waiting Pre-Chorus 2 It's like it was just last week I tell myself but it wasn't Dressing up and making plans I'm so bad at staying friends Say something nice Say it again Say something nice Say it again Verse I'd never known a libertine But you sure were thirsty Then it gets all murky Pre-Chorus 1 Say nice things about Detroit Remember standing in the doorway Private words and holding hands Can't you pretend to pretend? Pre-Chorus 2 Say nice things about Detroit The way you left you were a big big jerk There I was anticipating Some kind of love I'm still waiting Say something nice Say it again Say something nice Say it again
