Lyrics

Hoo-hoo-ooh, hoo-hoo
Hoo-hoo-ooh, hoo-hoo-ooh
Hoo-hoo-ooh, hoo-hoo, ooh
Are you a man who loves
And cherishes and cares for me?
Is that you? Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
Are you a guard in a prison maximum security?
Is that you? Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
Do we stay home all the time
'Cause you want me to yourself?
Is that you? Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
Or am I locked away
Out of fear that I'd find someone else?
Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
Well, I don't like
Living under your spotlight
Just because you think I might
Find somebody worthy (Woah)
Oh, I don't like (Yeah, he-he)
Living under your spotlight (Yeah, he-he)
Maybe if you treat me right (Yeah, he-he)
You won't have to worry (Woah)
Is this a relationship
Fulfilling your needs
As well as mine
Is that you? Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
Or is this just my sentence
Am I doing time?
Is that you? Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
If this is love
Real, real love
Then I'm staying no doubt
Is that you? Is that you? Is that you? Yeah
But if I'm just loves prisoner
Then I'm busting out
Is that you? Is that you? Yeah (Ahh, baby I don't like)
Well, I don't like
Living under your spotlight (Spotlight)
Just because you think I might (Just because you think I might)
Find somebody worthy (Find somebody worthy)
Oh, I don't like (I don't like)
Living under your spotlight (Living under your, under your)
Maybe if you treat me right (Treat me right)
You won't have to worry (You won't have to worry, no, no)
Oh, you ought to be
Ashamed of yourself
What the hell do you think you're doing?
Loving me, loving me so wrong
Baby, all I do is try (Try)
To show you that you're mine (Mine)
One and only guy (My guy)
No matter who may come along
Open your eyes, 'cause baby, I don't lie
Well, I don't like
Living under your spotlight
Just because you think I might
Find somebody worthy
Oh, I don't like
Living under your spotlight
Maybe if you treat me right (Treat me right)
You won't have to worry (You won't have to worry)
Oh, I don't lie
