Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fancy me
Thought I had my degree
In life and how love
Oughta be right
[Verse 2]
I had a one step plan to prove it
Guide in my pocket for fools
Fallin' in love
Love had to show me one thing
[Verse 3]
(I was so right) So right, yeah
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
I was so sure, so sure
But love taught me
But love, but love taught me
Who was, who was the boss
[Verse 4]
I defy
Anyone who claims that I
Didn't control whatever moved
In my soul
I could touch, touch delight
Just because you fell for me
Why should I feel uptight?
Love had to show me one thing
[Verse 5]
(I was so right) Oh, so right
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
And I was so, so sure
But love, for sure, but love, but love
Taught me
Who was, who was the

Love taught me, taught me
Taught me
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 8]

Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
So sure, I was so, so sure
But love, oh love taught me
Who was, who was the

(I was so right) So right, yeah
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
So sure
But love, oh
[Verse 10]
Love taught me, taught me
Taught me
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 11]
(I was so right) So right
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
So sure
But love taught me
Who was, who was the boss
[Verse 12]
(I was so right) So right
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off
(So sure) I was so, so sure
But love, but love, oh love taught me
Who was, who was the boss
[Verse 13]

Yeah, yeah
Love taught me, it showed me
Who was the boss
[Verse 14]
Oh love showed
Who ya turned me into, ooh, you turned me on
Thought I could turn emotion
On and off, on and off
On and off

Just let me tell you baby

Who was, said who was the boss
