[Verse 1]
You can never change when you want to, want to
People taking shade underneath you, neath you
Pockets full of change, heavy lifting, lifting

And the clueless act on their impulse
Embarrassed lips are touching dirty hips
Making romantic quips seem so useless
And you've never opened a door for me in your life

And kiss you on the legs to assure you, sure you
When time comes to arrest all the bad news, bad news
She'll be picking ledges beside you, side you

Out the back where the kids relax
And the clueless act on their impulse
Embarrassed lips are touching dirty hips
Making romantic quips seem so useless
And you've never opened a door for me in your life
[Bridge]
And feeling like she loves you more is tragic
And everything you've ever bought is plastic
Stuck inside a whole lot of love that you can't ignore
