She Plays Bass Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, won't you call me back?
'Cause I've been waiting for a text back
It hurts my brain
This chick who plays bass

[Chorus]
She plays bass, she plays bass
Nothing matters 'cause we're both in space
Pretty sure we could never date
She plays bass, she plays bass


[Verse 2]
Guess we're both stuck in the same boat
The world doesn't seem to get us, though

You're just stuck in space
Just playing your bass

[Chorus]
She plays bass, she plays bass
Nothing matters 'cause we're both in space
Pretty sure we could never date
She plays bass, she plays bass

[Bridge]
She plays bass, she plays bass
Nothing matters 'cause we're both in space
How I wish we could just date
So you could teach me how to be more like you
Evif, ruof, eerht, owt, eno
