I didn't take no shortcuts
|
I spent the money that I saved up
|
Oh, Momma running out of luck
|
Like my sister, don't give a fuck
|
|
I wanna steal your innocence
|
To me, my life, it don't make sense
|
Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
|
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"
|
|
I should've worked much harder
|
I should've just not bothered
|
I never show up on weekdays
|
Something that you learned yesterday
|
|
"Drive you to work; you'll be on time
|
These little problems they're not yours and mine,"
|
"Come on and listen to what I say
|
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay"
|
|
I just want to turn you down
|
I just want to turn you around
|
Oh, you ain't never had nothin' I wanted, but...
|
I want it all
|
I just can't figure out...
|
Nothing
|
|
And all together it went well
|
We made pretend we were best friends
|
Then she said, "Oh, you're a freak"
|
"They ordered me to make mistakes"
|
Together again, like the beginning
|
It all works somehow in the end
|
The things we did, the things you hide
|
For the record it's between you and I
|
|
Oh, I didn't take no shortcuts

To me my life, it just don't make any sense
|
Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
|
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"
|
|
I just want to misbehave
|
I just want to be your slave
|
Oh, you ain't never had nothing I wanted, but...
|
I want it all
|
I just can't figure out...
|
Nothin'
|
|
And all together it went well
|
We made pretend we were best friends
|
Then she said, "Oh, I can wait"
|
They ordered me to make mistakes
|
Together again like the beginning
|
It all works somehow in the end
|
The things we did, the things you hide
|
And for the record, it's between you and I
