[Verse 1]
I, I just can't be seen with you
I admit it anyway
I just get obscene with you, yeah
I don't stand a chance with you
I never did anyway
I, I can't even sleep with you
Ooh, I'd always be awake
Baby, baby, yeah
I just can't be seen with you
It's for your own sake
You're better off anyway
It's too dangerous, baby, yeah
Too dangerous
I just can't be seen with you
[Bridge]
They set us up so they can shoot us down, yeah
Put us six feet underground
And it's just too deep for me, baby
[Verse 2]
I just can't be seen with you
Ooh, ooh it hurts me to say
Yeah, that it was just a dream with you
Yeah, because you're married anyway
Oh shit
Babe I don't stand a chance with you
Oh, you're better off this way
It's hit and run away
It's just too dangerous baby
[Outro]
I just can't be, yes I got to chill this thing with you
I just can't be
It's too dangerous baby
Baby, it's just too much for you
I just can't be
I just can't be seen nowhere around you baby
I just can't be
It's too dangerous
It's just too dangerous baby
Even in the dark
I just can't be
Yes I got to chill with you
I just can't be
