All the kids are singing “Love Me Do”
Or something catchy, to the same effect
And I was thinking me and you
Could meet up later, with all due respect
To what’s-his-name
And don’t tell me he’s different from the rest
Cuz that’s insane…standing next to me
He’ll always be, just second best
So tell me what is it you’d miss
Oh I know it’s not his kiss
Told you darling I’ve had lots of practice
Could use some more, so why don’t we try it
But I know everybody’s,
Got a little voice inside their head
A friend who hides the truth
And tells you lies you’d rather hear instead
But I know you want me
The way you play with your hair
It only makes me aware that
His love is empty
Oh baby it’s barely there
So why don’t you tempt me
Now here we are again
Sitting in my car alone, underneath the night
It seems that I can’t win
So we’re heading into triple overtime
Now I’m on a break
Only one man to beat, but he knows I like to shoot up high
So I hesitate
Lord knows I don’t wanna be denied
So tell me what if I’m to miss
Oh would you run back to him
Probably should’ve done some target practice
It’s too late now, might as well try it
But I know everybody’s
Got a little voice inside their head
A friend who hides the truth
And tells you things you’d rather hear instead
Like I know you want me
The way you play with your hair
It only keeps me aware that
His love is empty
Oh baby it’s barely there
So why don’t you tempt me
I’m standing on your porch
Tossing rocks at your window
Begging you to come outside
He’s probably home by now
Either getting off or getting high
I only want you to myself
But you’re too weak to say goodbye
Baby you know you can’t fight it
Just take my hand and close your eyes
So tell me what is it you’ll miss
I know it’s not his kiss
I told you darling I’ve had lots of practice
Could use some more, so why don’t we try it
And doesn't everybody
Got a little voice inside their head
A friend who hides the truth
And tells you lies you’d rather hear instead
But I know you want me
The way you play with your hair
It only leaves me aware that
His love is empty
Oh baby it’s barely there
So why don’t you tempt me
