"It's good to be the King." Clooney must think...
Mayer has always had a clever tongue and keen wit, noticing the idiosyncrasies and quirks of romantic relationships (see 2001’s “My Stupid Mouth”) and the tracks on “Battle Studies” continue to showcase this talent. The album’s best lyrical phrase comes on the bluesy closer “Friends, Lovers Or Nothing,” as Mayer repeats the refrain, “Anything other than yes is no / Anything other than stay is go / Anything less than ‘I love you?...
