Hey there with the sour face
Hatin' on the whole wide world and throwing stones about the place
I'd rather turn on my TV
Than hear why you are oh so down, well baby that don't bother me
So it happened the night before, when you left and slammed the door
You didn't want to say you're sorry,
Now in the light of day, when your audience awaits
You're changing up the god damn story
And we all gotta say
Chorus
We're so glad to know you're fine
We hear you, see you, know what it's like to be you
No one really knows your mind
So you're all dressed up with nowhere to go
But does the whole world have to know?
I hear you're feeling bad today
Coz someone went behind your back and you got too much debt to pay
I dont know what you want from me?
Posting on the worldwide web and lapping up the sympathy
So you've got a point of view? Guess what, we've got one too.
We just don't feel the need to shout it
Coz you're making enemies over continents and seas
And frankly we could do without it
And we all gotta say
Chorus
We're so glad to know you're fine
We hear you, see you, know what it's like to be you
No one really knows your mind
So you're all riled up and it's starting to show
But does the whole world have to know?
Your caterwauling (your caterwauling)
Is not my problem (is not my problem)
The world keeps turning (the world keeps turning)
We all got problems (we all got problems)
The whole world don't need to know (repeat) x 4
Chorus
So you're all dressed up with nowhere to go
And you're all riled up and it's starting to show
And they made you mad and you're ready to blow
But does the whole world have to know?

Leave Dem Boys Alone

When I was just a young girl, my Daddy he left home
I'd sneak out of the house to find out where the bad boys roam
So they took me to the preacher full of fire and brimstone
Said "the devil gonna catch you up if you don't leave them boys alone"
Well the Bible taught me when in Rome do as the Romans do
And i could never turn one down, would you? (No!)
I never never do
(Wahoop) - Good girl, don't you cry
(Wahoop) - Good girls don't ask why
(Wahoop) - Good girl you gotta try to just leave them boys alone
(Wahoop) - Good girl you must take car
(Wahoop) - Good girl now please beware
(Wahoop) - Good girls don't put it there, you gotta leave them boys alone
When I was back in high school I was in the high school play
And fellas you would not believe what was going on backstage
The leading boy was standing there, I caught him in his underwear
With an "Oh my lord" and "I declare!" I didn't leave that boy alone
Well the theatre it taught me girl you gotta play the part
And im real good at playing with the heart (Ha!), I tear it apart
(Wahoop) - Good girl just say no
(Wahoop) - Good girl life ain't a show
(Wahoop) - Good girl they gotta go, you gotta leave them boys alone
(Wahoop) - Good girl you gone bad
(Wahoop) - Good girl he ain't your dad!
(Wahoop) - Good girl now you've been had, you gotta leave them boys alone
Well I'd go to all the parties, with the glitter and the glam
It really wasn't hard to get a little Wham Bam Thankyou Ma'am!
There always would be some guy who would try to take me home
And I, sir, kindly will oblige coz I don't wanna be alone.
Well the party life it taught me that nothing ever lasts
And I am always running from my past (go!) and I run fast
(Wahoop) - Good girl you're living blind
(Wahoop) - Good girl you've lost your mind
(Wahoop) - Good girl now please be kind and just leave them boys alone
(Wahoop) - Hey girl what do you do
(Wahoop) - Hey girl when you're feelin' blue?
(Wahoop) - Hey they've got feelings too, you gotta leave them boys alone
Well I know you must be wondering if I could ever change?
Well isn't it so funny how your very life can re-arrange
I found a bone-fide gent, who treated me so kind
And offered me the kind of love that I thought I'd never find
And now I'm standing by his side and that's where i'm gonna stay
And i am never ever gonna stray, (Eh?) No damn way!
(Wahoop) - Good girl you got your man
(Wahoop)- Good girl you won the hand
(Wahoop) - Good girl you know you can just leave them boys alone
(Wahoop) - Hey girl you done good
(Wahoop) - Hey girl better knock on wood
(Wahoop) - Hey girl do what you should and just leave them boys alone
Wahoop - (Girl leave them boys alone)
Wahoop - (Girl leave them boys alone)
Wahoop - (Girl leave them boys alone) You gotta leave them boys alone
Wahoop - (Girl leave them boys alone)
Wahoop - (Girl leave them boys alone)
Wahoop - (Girl leave them boys alone) You gotta leave them boys alone

Waiting
02:50
|

Here I am, slave to your power, Heart's a million and one an hour
Hot cheeks they start to flush, my god this is such a rush
The sweat on my forehead gleams but you are nowhere to be seen
Well do you want me yes or no? I wanna love you but don't you know that
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong
I keep checking, no damn sign for what seems like the longest time
How can you make me wait this way? I hate it but I love it baby.
Hands are needles, feet all pins. What a heightened state I'm in
Well do you want me yes or no? I wanna love you but don't you know that
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong
What if I turn around to you, and tell you that I'm no-one's fool
Well maybe that would set me free to do what I damn well please
Or maybe I will end up lost, without the fear in which I trust
My heart is fast, my head is slow. I wanna leave you but don't you know that
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) And I know it's wrong
I've been waiting (I've been waiting) For so long
Yeah I've been waiting (I've been waiting) Ive been waiting baby now I'm gone!

Call my girl get my glad-rags on,Tonight's the night for one and one,
But then you come along, Change how it's gonna be
Coz if two's company, why you always number three?
My lips are red and my heels are high
Tonight I'm really gonna get that guy
But then I turn around, who is it there I see?
Coz if two's company, why you always number three?
How do you know where I go? How do you always seem to know?
I guess it must be hard for you coz you used to be my everyday number two
I let you go, babe I let you down, but why you always gotta come around?
Well it ain't gonna work, ain't gonna work on me
Coz if two's company, why you always number three?
How do you know where I go? How do you always seem to know?
I guess it must be hard for you coz you used to be my everyday number two
I let you go, babe I let you down, but why you always gotta come around?
Well it ain't gonna work, ain't gonna work on me
Coz if two's company, why you always number three?
So find new company, baby please leave me be
Coz if two's company, why you always number three?

Maybe we will get somewhere, maybe we've got time to spare
I may have had a little doubt, but now I know we'll work things out
And this time it'll be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
Maybe we will be the best, maybe we'll outlast the rest
Coz we have learned a thing or two, we made a mess but we pulled through
And this time it'll be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
You made me cry, I thought I'd cry forever
But now my eyes are dry, and I know we're strong together
So baby wont you just be mine? Baby it's your time to shine
Coz i've been waitin' all my life to find that man and be his wife
And this time it'll be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright
Alright alright (alright alright)
Its gonna be alright this time, this time's alright
Tell me baby I'll be fine
