F   Dm A#               C          F Dm
Lately,   I'm feeling stupid and crazy
A#                C            F Dm
'Cause I saw him with his new baby
A#                 C             F  Dm A# C
And he treats her like she's the one
                 F        Dm          A#           C
It's not that I want him back, ain't trying to be mean
                  F         Dm          A#                C
But I bought him brand new clothes and burned the skinny jeans,
      F            Dm       A#            C          F Dm A# C
But she'll never know that I've made him better for her

Chorus:
                 F               Dm
So, give some credit where it's due,
      A#                C
Give props to you know who
             F              Dm
I gave him swag I made him cool,
    A#            C
He used to be a fool
                F               Dm
So, give some credit Where it's due,
       A#                C
Give props to you know who
          F       Dm
You know who, ooh oh
       A#               C
Give credit where it's due

Ooh, wee, he holds her hand at the movies
Never stares at other boobies
I bet she thinks he's the one
She should be thanking me and sending me some flowers
I taught him everything, now he can last for hours
She'll never know that I made him better for her

Chorus:
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
I gave him swag, I made him cool
He used to be a fool
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
You know who, you know who
Give credit where it's due

Yo, he used to be whack, but I made him all that
Well shit, if you you think of my last name
I guess my training's where is at
Had him brushing his teeth, even flossing
Got him looking like Ryan Gosling
I guess that makes me pretty awesome
But I wasn't in love, so I tossed him

Chorus:
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
I gave him swag, I made him cool
He used to be a fool
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
You know who, you know who
Give credit where it's due

F             Dm      A#   C
Give me that credit, baby baby
F             Dm      A#   C
Give me that credit, baby baby
F             Dm      A#   C
Give me that credit, baby baby
                 F  Dm
'Cause you know who,
A#                 C
Credit where it's to, hey
F                Dm                 A#
You'll never know, you'll never know
           C           F
He wasn't like this before
                 Dm                 A#
You'll never know, you'll never know
               C            F
