Don’t I Make It Look Easy Lyrics

[Chorus]
Don't I make it look easy, baby
When I do what I do? (Uh-huh)
Don't I make it look easy, baby? Ah
Well, I'm foolin' you

[Verse 1]
I just posted a picture, read all the comments
Hearted the good ones if I'm bein' honest, uh-huh
I mighta spent an hour on it (Shoo-wop-wop)
Mm-hmm (Sha-ooh-wop-wop, sha-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
You won't ever see me cry (I'm not cryin')
'Cause I've got a filter for every single lie

[Chorus]
Don't I make it look easy, baby (Uh-huh)
When I do what I do? (When I do what I do)
Don't I make it look easy, baby? Ah (Ah)
Well, I'm foolin' you
Don't I make it look easy, baby? (Ah; uh-huh)
I'm good at keepin' my cool (I'm good at keepin' my cool)
Don't I make it look easy, baby? Ah (Ah)
Well, I'm foolin' you

[Verse 2]
You think I live that lavish life, happy lifе
But you don't know I'm up all night
Worry 'bout my body type
I wonder if I'm what they likе
But I should just say "fuck it," right? (Shoo-wop-wop)
Mmhmm (Sha-ooh-wop-wop, sha-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, and you won't ever see me cry (I'm not cryin')
'Cause I've got a filter for every single lie

[Chorus]
Don't I make it look easy, baby (Uh-huh)
When I do what I do? (When I do what I do)
Don't I make it look easy, baby? Ah (Ah)

[Bridge]
I know I ain't the only one who feels like this
Gettin' good at hidin' all this mess (Gettin' good)
I'm tired (She's tired)
Oh, Lord, I'm tired (Yeah, she's tired)

[Chorus]
But don't I make it look easy, baby (Uh-huh)
When I do what I do? (When I do what I do)
Don't I make it look easy, baby? Ah (Ah)
Well, I'm foolin' you
Don't I make it look easy, baby? (Ah; uh-huh)
I'm good at keepin' my cool (I'm good at keepin' my cool)
Don't I make it look easy, baby? Ah (Ah)
Well, I'm foolin' you

What did Meghan Trainor say about "Don’t I Make It Look Easy"?

This song is about me feeling like an overwhelmed, boss-lady, bad-bitch mom, who has mom guilt. [I’m] constantly being interviewed and told ‘You are so happy and confident. You do it all’ — but I cry a lot. So I’m like, ‘Is that what I show on Instagram and social media because that’s wonderful?’ Because that’s not what it is all the time… I’m fooling you. Everyone posts only the good stuff, but try not to compare yourself, because they’re not posting the bad shit. As a famous person, it’s tough to even talk about any of the bad times because no one wants to hear it. When I became a mother, that same kind of ‘Don’t bitch, because this is what you always wanted. Don’t complain. Everything should be perfect. Just appear happy’… Even though it’s really, really hard. I thought that was relatable to everyone. My big thing nowadays is to talk about my feelings and not stuff them down and pretend like they’re not there.
