What’s the worst thing that could happen
We could change our minds
That seems to be the hottest topic at this time
We sit in the round in the meditation, dragging, chasing
Wondering who’s holding
Who’s got the will to draw the line
I know you’ve got something burning up inside
It’s so unhealthy but so good for me
Said if I didn’t know
And if I didn’t know
Well if I didn’t know that you loved me would you tell me?

Oh, God only knows our contradictions to quitting is a hate to love relationship thing
A fire under you is so fulfilling
I fear there’s nothing more

I’m giving, giving you, the choke hold
My flirting with disaster is mighty loved
You, you’re so bold
My wanting to kiss you still is not enough
I’m getting over all the comments
I’m feeling statements made by people are nonsense
I’m getting stronger by the minute
And once I slip into position I’ll swing you and turn you all around

You are the sweetest thing I’ve found since whenever
You’re the only way my time is measured
You might be the silent type
But you’re advertising louder now
It’s crazy how you’re killing me
You’re killing me now

But I like your red top and matching bottles
You know the ones, the ones you got on
Pull them over your skinny self
But don’t cover your tattoo
‘Cause I like to look at you, yeah
I love that smell on you
And I got your special place against this face for tasting too

And I like it natural
No need for chemicals
Fuckin-ing up my senses
You’re making essence
You call it sexual
And you’re going to get yours, my lady
Might even be today
And it ain’t no thing because I’ll be rolling right along with you

You are the sweetest thing I’ve found since whenever
You’re the only way my time is measured
You might be the silent type
But you’re advertising louder now
It’s crazy how you’re killing me

And give us both a break
And to give us back a taste when the way things were before they made the laws
And to give us both a chance
But it won’t be the last romance ‘cause when the weekend starts the guilty party’s on

Weekend party’s over
Don’t stop, let’s get closer
Friday, got cold shoulder
Monday, got a new composure

Weekend party’s over
Don’t stop, let’s get lower
I won't blow your cover
Opportunistic lover

Weekend party’s over
Don’t stop, let’s get closer
Friday was mediocre
Monday, I’m self-exposed now

Weekend party’s over
Don’t stop, let’s suppose I
I won’t blow your cover
Opportunistic lover
