Lyrics
Verse 1:
I was wondering
Why you never call me
I am downright serious
I will tell you plainly
Pre-Chorus 1:
You have become her focus
Her eyes are on you
The plan, understand, is to take you away
I don't know what the heck to do
Chorus 1:
You say I make it up when I'm feeling down
Only lately my payments only get me down
Yeah, on the ground it's crazy, I'm not lazy
All I want is you
You say I make it up when I'm feeling down
Only lately my payments only get me down
Yeah, on the ground it's crazy, I'm not lazy
All I want is you, you
Verse 2:
You don't understand
You think that I can't handle it
I am quite experienced
I have always loved you
Pre-Chorus 2:
I know you never noticed
It's scary but it's true
The plan, understand, is to never give up
To keep her little self away from you
Chorus 2:
You say I make it up when I'm feeling down
Only lately my payments only get me down
Yeah, on the ground it's crazy, I'm not lazy
All I want is you
You say I make it up when I'm feeling down
Only lately my payments only get me down
Yeah, on the ground it's crazy, I'm not lazy
All I want is you, you
(Solo)
Chorus 3:
You say I make it up when I'm feeling down
Only lately my payments only get me down
Yeah, on the ground it's crazy, I'm not lazy
All I want is you
You say I make it up when I'm feeling down
Only lately my payments only get me down
Yeah, on the ground it's crazy, I'm not lazy
All I want is you, you
