Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tell me you're free but if it's light out, you're not
I guess my indecision's getting you off
Sick of the chase, I don't wanna be caught like that
I don't wanna be caught like that
[Verse 2]
Don't get me wrong, I think you're perfectly fine
So fucking full of insincerity type
Superficial
This man is on a mission tonight
Tonight, tonight
[PreChorus]
I think someone's got a crush
Think I'm living in his head, I think he can't get enough
I'm playing with his feelings and that's gotta be rough
But I like to see 'em panic
So look but don't touch
[Chorus]
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
You think I want you bad
And you'll break my heart
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, it's so, so sad
Just how wrong you are
[Chorus]
You say you're in love
I know you just wanna
Call me when you're bored or drunk like
Leave you high and dry
Masochistic, twist the knife
See how far you get tonight
Who knows where I'll sleep tonight?
[Verse 3]
You say that I'm like getting blood out of stone
There's no tension, you just can't take a no
There's nothing sexy being thirty and stoned
So I put it in the chorus just to let you know
[Chorus]
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
You think I want you bad
And you'll break my heart
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, it's so, so sad
Just how wrong you are
[Chorus]
You say you're in love
I know you just wanna
Call me when you're bored or drunk, like
Leave you high and dry
Masochistic, twist the knife
See how far you get tonight
Who knows where I'll sleep tonight?
[Bridge]
So don't touch
My love
Don't touch my love
'Cause you'll fuck
It up
You'll fuck it up
[Verse 4]
You're all about the business
Till it starts to get dark
Guess all that pretty privilege has been fucking up your heart
You want me to come over
You can't bear to be apart
'Cause you only ever call me when you're lonely and you're hard
[Chorus]
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
You think I want you bad
And you'll break my heart
Ooh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, it's so, so sad
Just how wrong you are
[Outro]
Might give you a call
Push you off your pedestal
Not my type and never were
Don't think this is gonna work
You say you're in love
Pretty sweet under my thumb
But I give back, you fuck it up
You still think I can't get enough
