I should be at home, I should be alone
Instead of convincing somebody that I'm gonna call
When the morning comes, I should settle down
Make my mama proud
Says she been wanting grandbabies
I just been practicing how, yeah
If you wanna dance with me
I'll spin you right around
Hand on your hip and dip you down, down, down
Baby, don't you fall for me
I'll tell you right now
You're gonna hate me
When we hit the ground
Baby, I'm a project
Loving me's a mistake
Find another prospect
Save yourself the heartbreak
Think you're gonna fix me
Think we're making progress
Baby, don't you fall for me
You'll be broken with me
Somewhere in the process
Baby, I'm a project
Baby, I'm a project
You should leave me now
Take an easy out
If you need persuading
Then baby, just ask around
It's a little town
You should think again
Listen to your friends
I got more to work on
Than I would like to admit, yup
If you wanna dance with me
I'll spin you right around
Hand on your hip and dip you down, down, down
Baby, don't you fall for me
I'll tell you right now
You're gonna hate me
When we hit the ground
Baby, I'm a project
Loving me's a mistake
Find another prospect
Save yourself the heartbreak
Think you're gonna fix me
Think we're making progress
You'll be broken with me
Somewhere in the process
Baby, I'm a project
Baby, I'm a project
Now stop
Take a look at yourself
Put that fairytale nonsense back on the shelf
I know you're like guys that you think you can help
But I ain't gonna be your notch and your little tool belt
If you're looking for love, you ain't looking for me
If you're looking for a good time, hold my train
We can finish this song, let me find my keys
Go home, get to working on this project
Loving me's a mistake
Find another prospect
Save yourself the heartbreak
Think you're gonna fix me
Think we're making progress
You'll be broken with me
Somewhere in the process
Baby, I'm a project
Baby, I'm a project
Baby, I'm a project
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, I'm a project
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, I'm a project
