Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My friends feel that
It's their appointed duty
And he keeps tryna tell me
All you wanna do is use me
But my answer
To all that use me stuff
Oh, baby
[Verse 2]
Now I wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good gettin' used
Keep on usin' me until you use me up
(Use me)
(Use me)
[Verse 3]
Mother sat down
And you know she told me
If he can overcome you
All he's gonna do is use you
But my answer
To all that use me stuff
Oh, baby
[Verse 4]
Now I'm gonna spread the news
That if it feels this good gettin' used
Well, keep on usin' me until you use me up
(Use me)
You use me up
(Use me)
[Verse 5]
Now I'm gonna spread the news
That if it feels this good gettin' used
Come on and keep on usin' me until you use me up
(Use me)
You use me up
(Use me)
[Verse 6]
Sometimes it's true
You really do abuse me
I lost the only people
Who really ever did amuse me
But, oh, baby
When you love me, I can't get enough
Oh, baby
[Verse 7]
Now I'm gonna spread the news
That if it feels this good gettin' used
Well, keep on usin' me until you use me up
(Use me)
You use me up
Till you use me up
(Use me)
Until you use me up
Come on and use me up
[Verse 8]
(Use me)
(Use me)
Come on and use me
[Verse 9]
(Use me, use me, use me)
Use me (Use me, use me)
(Use me) Use me (Use me)
(Use me, use me) Use me
(Use me, use me)
(Use me) Use me (Use me)
(Use me, use me) Use me
(Use me, use me)
(Use me) Use me (Use me)
(Use me, use me) Use me
(Use me, use me)
(Use me) Use me (Use me)
