lyrics

Go head and start it
I pull off and park it when you said to me
“Let’s keep it moving”

Girl you know this deep loving is a scene
You’re serving time heals all
Food for thought in the bowl of your watch dog

He said that I got no business laying in your bed
Well that’s extraordinary interest for just a friend
“Oh it’s nothing, just trust me
I’m paving my way to the Good Life
I’ll ring you from there”

They’re always rockin’ & rollin’ & droppin’ & rollin’
On something their bodies won’t like in the morning
I’ll collect my doubts and get back to you
And I do, I wish you the very best
Just not anywhere that I can see you
Every love song’s a mistake by the time it’s written

And oh the trends, the trends aren’t in as fast as you
They said just let her through
Patience, I got no time for you
You say be patient, I will be coming through eventually
So high maintenance
Oh how the peasants live to serve the queen
“Why would I settle bb? You may kiss the ring”

He said that I got no business laying in your bed
Watchdog start to whimper when he don’t get fed
“Oh it’s nothing, just trust me
I’m paving my way to the Good Life
I’ll ring you from there”

They’re always rockin’ & rollin’

Oh I just need one more time with you
No, I don’t need overtime
No, I can’t take all your love from you
I never meant to trap you
I’ve never been mad at you

Now I know, and now I know that love’s just passing by
Flows like water, dries like cum, why do I act surprised?
Finder / keeper / lover / weeper
This is nothing new
And I don’t blame you girl, you’re doing what you gotta do
Do what you gotta do

I never meant to trap you
Never been mad at you
