That's My Type

Songtext

[Verse 1] [Voice A] I won’t take a number just to stand in your parade You can keep the practiced grin and every promise pre-made I like a little nerve, but yours arrives with a receipt You talk like every room should rearrange beneath your feet [Voice B] She says that like she’s never checked her own reflection I know exactly what I bring; I don’t need your inspection I pick the place, I pick the song, I pick the hour we leave If you can laugh when plans go sideways, you can sit with me [Pre-Chorus] [Voice A] Show me how you treat the waiter when the order comes out wrong [Voice B] Show me if you know the words, or just pretend along [Voice A] Can you take a joke? [Voice B] Can you make one land? [Both] If you’ve got a little heart, then maybe we can dance [Chorus] [Both] That’s my type, that’s my type Easy with the charm, but you’ve got your own life That’s my type, that’s my type Make me laugh at lunch, then stay up past the last bite [Voice A] No big speech, just show me you’re kind [Voice B] Bring your whole weird self; I’ll bring mine [Both] That’s my type, that’s my type [Verse 2] [Voice B] He’s got a half-finished puzzle taking over his place And a little crooked grin that shows up late to his face He knows the names of all the dogs on our block by heart He says he hates to sing, then takes the highest part [Voice A] He lost at cards and didn’t blame the dealer once He split the last dumpling, though he wanted every ounce He asked what I thought, then waited for the answer That kind of quiet confidence can make a girl a dancer [Voice B] He tells a story twice, but changes who’s the hero The first time it’s his cousin, second time it’s a sparrow I don’t correct him; I just let him tell it through [Voice A] That is oddly sweet [Voice B] And a little true [Pre-Chorus] [Voice A] Show me how you handle it when nobody’s impressed [Voice B] Show me if you can admit you’re wrong and still get dressed [Voice A] Can you take a joke? [Voice B] Can you make one land? [Both] If you’ve got a little heart, then maybe we can dance [Chorus] [Both] That’s my type, that’s my type Easy with the charm, but you’ve got your own life That’s my type, that’s my type Make me laugh at lunch, then stay up past the last bite [Voice A] No big speech, just show me you’re kind [Voice B] Bring your whole weird self; I’ll bring mine [Both] That’s my type, that’s my type [Bridge] [Voice A] Maybe he’s a mess with his socks in the freezer [Voice B] Maybe he says “one more song” and means three or either [Voice A] Maybe he gets nervous and he talks too fast [Voice B] Maybe he makes the good part last [Both] We don’t need perfect, we don’t need polished Give me the real one, give me the honest [Voice A] The one who listens [Voice B] The one who tries [Both] The one who can meet me eye to eye [Final Chorus] [Both] That’s my type, that’s my type Easy with the charm, but you’ve got your own life That’s my type, that’s my type Make me laugh at lunch, then stay up past the last bite [Voice A] No big speech, just show me you’re kind [Voice B] Bring your whole weird self; I’ll bring mine [Both] That’s my type, that’s my type [Outro] [Both] That’s my type
