I didn't take no shortcuts
i spent the money that i saved up
oh, mama, running out of luck
they like my sister don't give a fuck
i wanna steal your innocence
to me my life, it don't make sense
your strange manners i love 'em so
why won't you wear your new trench coat?
oh, should i work much harder
or should i just not bother
i never show up on weekdays
that's something that you learned yesterday
drive you to work or you wont be on time
these little problems they're not yours they're mine
come on and listen to what i say
i got some secrets that'll make you stay
i just want to turn you down
i just want to turn you around
oh, you ain't never had nothing i wanted
but i want it all, i just can't figure out
nothing
and all together it went well
we made pretend we were best friends
then she said, oh, you're a freak
they ordered me to make mistakes
together again like the beginning
it all works somehow in the end
the things we did, the things you hide
and for the record it's between you and i

i just want to misbehave
i just want to be your slave
