Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I, I just can't be seen with you
I admit it anyway
Yeah
I just get obscene with you
Yeah
I, I don't stand a chance with you
(I just can't be seen)
I never did, anyway
[Verse 2]
I, I can't even sleep with you
Ooh
I'd always be awake
Baby, baby, yeah
I just can't be seen with you
(I just can't be seen)
It's for your own sake
[Verse 3]
You're better off anyway
It's too dangerous, baby
It's too dangerous
I just can't be
I just can't be seen
I just can't be
[Verse 4]
Set us up, so they can shoot us down, yeah
Put us six feet underground
Yeah, it's just too deep for me, baby
[Verse 5]
I just can't be seen with you
(I just can't be seen)
Ooh, although it hurts me to say it
Yeah
That it was just a dream with you
(It's just a dream)
Yeah, because you're married anyway, oh shit
Babe, I don't stand a chance with you
(I just can't be seen)
Ooh, you're better off this way
It's hit and run anyway
It's just too dangerous, baby
[Verse 6]
(I just can't be)
Yes, I gotta chill this thing with you
(I just can't be) Yeah, yeah
It's too dangerous, baby
(I just can't be)
Babe, it's too, too much for you
(I just can't be)
I just can't be seen
Nowhere around you
(I just can't be)
It's too dangerous
It's just too dangerous, baby
(I just can't be)
Even in the dark
(I just can't be)
Yes, I gotta chill with you
(I just can't be)
(I just can't be)
I just can't get used to you
