Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why you got it in for me?
Is it 'cause I bring you to your knees?
Throw water on electricity just to see
If the spark will make us feel the way we used to feel
[Verse 2]
You're my heart taker, I'm your heart breaker
And we're both fakers fakin', always straight into each other's arms
We know where we are
We know what we are
[Verse 3]
Unchain my love, oh
But don't you ever let me go
[Verse 4]
Lights go out again
Just stroke my pain and tempt my troubles
Sick how we pretend
But we're not friends and we're not lovers
We're just trouble, we're just trouble
So tempt my trouble
[Verse 5]
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
[Verse 6]
I keep on messin' with your head
You keep on messin' up my bed
I feel like we're two stoners, two loners
So keep on forgettin' everything we say
[Verse 7]
Unchain my love, oh
But don't you ever let me go
[Verse 8]
Lights go out again
Just stroke my pain and tempt my troubles
Sick how we pretend
But we're not friends and we're not lovers
We're just trouble, we're just trouble
So tempt my trouble
[Verse 9]
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)
[Verse 10]
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)
So why you gotta tempt my trouble?
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)
So why you gotta tempt my trouble?
Oh-oh
[Verse 11]
Lights go out again
Just stroke my pain and tempt my troubles
Sick how we pretend
But we're not friends and we're not lovers
We're just trouble, we're just trouble
So tempt my trouble
[Verse 12]
We're just trouble, we're just trouble
So tempt my trouble
Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh
