lyrics:

Hair slicked back
Eyeliner black
Drinking rum and coke that she didn’t buy
Moves too fast
To get attached but
Everybody’s in and they’re betting high

I never liked games
‘Cause I’m over competitive
And I don’t wanna be a sore loser
But I like her face so I think that I’m gonna give her what she wants
I’ll play with her

Fine, cool, she’s pretty cool
And I know that I’m just a number and it’s
Fine, cool, she’s pretty

I’m gonna take my time, she has the night
I can wait as long she likes it
And I’m probably never gonna see her again
And I probably should care more that I lost my friends
But this is fun and I’m drunk and I’m single as fuck

Fine, cool, she’s pretty cool
And I know that I’m just a number and it’s
Fine, cool, she’s pretty

I’m not looking for love not looking for love
I’m not looking for love not looking for someone
More than I can handle
Difficult to let go
Calling me an ex not looking for love
We don’t need a goodbye
Just a good night
Not looking for love
I’m looking for something
Cool, she’s pretty cool and I know that I’m a just a number and it’s
Fine, cool, she’s pretty

So pretty yeah
Fine, cool, she’s pretty cool
Fine, cool, she’s pretty cool
And I know that I’m just a number and it’s
Fine, cool, she’s pretty
