Why You Wanna Mess It All Up?

[Verse 1]
Trust is a thing, a thing of the past
I knew this relationship wouldn't last
You never ever seem to keep your word to me, ooh wee
Your love is good but your timing is bad
The most irresponsible man I ever had, Lord
You left me hanging for the very last time tonight
That's right, oh

[Chorus]
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?

[Verse 2]
You got some stuff that I don't understand
Who can I depend on if it ain't my man?
How dare you say, "gimme one more chance" again
The end, oh oh oh

[Chorus]
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up? Yeah
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?

[Bridge]
I tried to provide a place for you in my life
But you ain't ready, and you ain't steady
We've run out of time, hey, hey, hey, oh

[Chorus]
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up, baby?
Why you wanna mess it, why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?

[Outro]
Why, oh
