Don't stop now, it's a work of art
|
Watching you work the route takes away my breath
|
Show him how, show him what to do
|
It's a master-class, baby I'm impressed
|
She said, "Who do you think you're talkin' to?
|
I treat all my men with a little respect"
|
I said, "That may be the case baby,
|
But I know who you are, I don't wanna be next"
|
|
(Ooh) Don't waste your time, don't throw those lines at me
|
(Ooh) Too many friends, too many casualties
|
(Ooh) You point those eyes just like a loaded gun
|
(Ooh) I'm not about to be just anyone
|
|
Things don't change, there will always be
|
Someone the same as you, someone the same as me
|
That's okay, there's no need to rush
|
Please don't adjust your philosophy
|
She said, "Who do you think you're talkin' to?
|
All I ask is just a little respect"
|
I said, "That may be the case baby,
|
But I know who you are, I don't wanna be next"
|
|
(Ooh) Don't waste your time, don't throw those lines at me
|
(Ooh) Too many friends, too many casualties
|
(Ooh) I don't need this, I need a tender heart
|
(Ooh) You worked alone, I knew that from the start
|
|
(Ooh) Don't waste your time, don't throw those lines at me
|
(Ooh) Too many friends, too many casualties
|
(Ooh) You point those eyes just like a loaded gun
|
(Ooh) I'm not about to be just anyone
|
|
No, no, no, keep away from me baby
|
I know who you are, hey, don't wanna be next
|
Keep away, you're wasting your time, you'll ruin your lines, oh yeah
