[Chorus]
We've been doing the thing for a minute
And your heart just ain't in it
Ain't no sense in pretending
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sending
We've been doing the thing for a minute
And your heart just ain't in it
Ain't no sense in pretending
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sending
[Verse 1]
I tried and tried and tried to love you
Exactly the way that you wanted me to
And then a couple of months gone by, and I could see
That I ain't who you want me to be, oh
[Chorus]
We've been doing the thing for a minute
And your heart just ain't in it
Ain't no sense in pretending
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sending
We've been doing the thing for a minute
And your heart just ain't in it
Ain't no sense in pretending
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sending
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Well baby, please don't string me along with that song and dance
I ain't lookin' for a pre-fab romance
Well, you ain't doin' me any favors keeping me on the line
Ain't nothin' but wasted time, oh!
[Chorus]
We've been doing the thing for a minute
And your heart just ain't in it
Ain't no sense in pretending
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sending
[Outro]
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sendin'
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sendin'
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sendin'
You ain't pickin' up what I'm sendin', yeah
(Pickin' up what I'm sending!)
(Pickin' up what I'm sending!)
(Pickin' up what I'm sending!)
(Pickin' up what I'm sending!)
(Ooh! Pickin' up what I'm sending!)
(Ooh! Pickin' up what I'm sending!)
(Ooh!)
