Olivia Rodrigo expectations Lyrics:
I met him at a party
I think he was on drugs
He wasn't smart or funny
I convinced myself he was
He had a great apartment
And a car his parents bought
I thought that he was perfect
And now his number's blocked

Took a couple months (took a couple months)
But now I am secure (now I am secure)
I am so evolved (I am so evolved)
Now I ask for more, and more
And more, and more, and more

I won't settle for a guy with a fake job
They seem so desperate for lovin', but, baby, I'm not
Gave my heart with zero stipulations
Now I take careful consideration
I'm not kissin' any boy that is passive
Their indecision is painfully unattractive
Past mistakes are just new information
These days, I've got expectations

So I hit the new year like a single girl at a Vegas bar
Rockin' my mini dress with a vodka cran' and an open heart
Yeah, I've got hope, yeah, I've got drive
I will not lose my faith
Don't think my future husband's at this bar in Silver Lake

But in a couple months (in a couple months)
A man will be procured (this man will be procured)
He will be evolved (he will be evolved)
And I will be adored, adored, adored, adored, adored

I won't settle for a guy with a fake job
They seem so desperate for lovin', but, baby, I'm not
Gave my heart with zero stipulations
Now I take careful consideration
I'm not kissin' any boy that is passive
Their indecision is painfully unattractive
Past mistakes are just new information
These days, I've got expectations

I've got big expectations
I've got real big expectations
I've got big expectations
I've got real big expectations
She's got big expectations
She's got real big expectations
She's got big expectations
She's got real big expectations

(Ah) I won't settle for a guy with a fake job
They seem so desperate for lovin', but, baby, I'm not (baby, I'm not)
Gave my heart with zero stipulations
Now (I take, I take) I take careful consideration
(Ah) I'm not kissin' any boy that is passive
(Ah) their indecision is painfully unattractive
Past mistakes are just new information
These days, I've got expectations
