First off I can't keep a promise
I'm no one to count on at all
Add on that I'm a coward
Too scared to return your call

But you don't care
You keep sticking around
While I'm acting a clown
You're bigger, than me
La la la la la la
'Cause you're still here
Your feet stuck to the ground
Despite how silly it sounds
You're bigger
Than me
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

It's known that I'm a liar
Often I'm blacker than white
Add on my uncandid ego
No ones less humbled than I

But you don't care
You keep sticking around
While I'm acting a clown
You're bigger, than me
La la la la la la
'Cause you're still here
Your feet stuck to the ground
Despite how silly it sounds
You're bigger
Than me
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

All the messed up things I do
Yeah I swear I'll make 'em up to you
Before you're going heaven knows
Just let me make it better
I'll try and measure up
I'll try and measure up to you
Oh yeah,

I'll make 'em up to you
Oh yeah!

But you don't care
You keep sticking around
While I'm acting a clown
You're bigger, than me
La la la la la la
'Cause you're still here
Your feet stuck to the ground
Despite how silly it sounds
You're bigger
Than me
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

Just bigger than me
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
