You and I travel to the beat
of a different drum
Oh can't you tell
by the way I run
Every time
you make eyes at me
Wo oh
You cry and moan
and say it will work out
But honey child
I've got my doubts
You can't see
the forest for the trees
Oh don't get me wrong
It's not that I knock it
It's just that I am
not in the market
For a boy
who wants to love only me
Yes and I ain't saying
you ain't pretty
All I'm saying is I'm not ready
For any person place or thing
To try and pull
the reins in on me
So good bye I'll be leaving
I see no sense
in this crying and grieving
We'll both live a lot longer
If you live without me
<Interlude>
