And tEmhat's how I kDnow that Cit's starting Gup again
Put yEmour petal to Dthe metaCl and break my Garms
Or yoEmu can break mDy legs iCf you want me tGo stay put
UnderEmneath the covDers I doCn't care about Ganything

You cEmut my hair ofDf in my Csleep and put it Gin the kitchen sink
I nevEmer thought it Dwould hCappen to meG  
Well you tEmreat me like Da little toy aCnd make me do a Gdance
[Verse 3]
GIf you want to, Cwe can make Ga pact
But iEmt will Ebe an act, iCt doesn't meGan anything
Tie me Cwith balloon strings tGo the floor
EmI don't care Canymore You can dEmo what you wGant
No, I dEmon't care anyCmore You can Emdo what you Gwant
