"Nobody Does It Better" is a song recorded by Ariana Grande intended for her debut album, Yours Truly. It was leaked on May 8, 2016.

Background

On May 8, 2016, Grande allegedly confirmed through a direct message that the song was recorded nearly three years ago, and was originally intended for her debut album Yours Truly.

Trivia

• Before Grande confirmed it was for Yours Truly, fans believed the song was for Dangerous Woman, since the song was leaked days before the release of the album.
• Due to the long instrumental bridge, it could be inferred that a rap verse was going to be featured before the song was scrapped.

Lyrics

[Intro: Ariana Grande & Harmony Samuels]
So what we gon' do?
And what you gon' do?
So what we gon' do?
So what you gon' do?
Ooo-oooh
Ooo-oooh
Ooo-oooh
Ooo-oooh

[Verse 1: Ariana Grande]
You said you'd never forget her
And she said she could change your life
It happened on the day you met her, oh
A love at first sight made you blind

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
But I warned you she wasn't who she claimed to be
And no one could love you like me

[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
(Cause nobody does it better)
I know you're sittin' at home cryin' cause you miss me
(Nobody does it better)
You must be out of your mind, boy, what was you thinkin'?
(Yeah, nobody does it)
No one, no
No one, no
(No-no-nobody does it)
No one, no
No one
(No-no-nobody does it better)

[Verse 2: Ariana Grande]
Don't throw your heart out in a letter
Cause I already read your mind, oh
You know you messed out on forever, oh
And settled for a waste of time, mmm

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
But I warned you she wasn't who she claimed to be
And no one could love you like me

[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
(Cause nobody does it better)
I know you're sittin' at home cryin' cause you miss me
(Nobody does it better)
You must be out of your mind, boy, what was you thinkin'?
(Yeah, nobody does it)
No one, no
No one, no
(No-no-nobody does it)
No one, no
No one
(No-no-nobody does it better)

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
But I warned you she wasn't who she claimed to be
And no one could love you like me, ooooh, yeah

[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
(Cause nobody does it better)
I know you're sittin' at home (Sittin' at home) cryin' cause you miss me (Oooh, hey)
(Nobody does it better)
You must be out of your mind (Your mind), boy, what was you thinkin'? (Ooh)
(Yeah, nobody does it)
