Don't tell me no. Just tell me yes. I see your red heart beating out your chest. Let's walk on fire. I'll take you high. I'll make your head feel better than the best. Yellow, paint it gold. I wanna rock you, til you roll. Hello, do what you're told. I wanna rock you, til you roll. Shut your mouth, and close your eyes. Put your fingers to the sky. Just sit back and turn it up. Take it, til ya had too much. Feel the rush, getting close. Let me be your overdose. Let me be your overdose. Let me be your overdose. Let me be your overdose.

When you're fighting, I'm fighting and when you're packing, I'm packing. When you're riding, I'm riding and when you're laughing, I'm laughing. And when I'm looking in your eyes it's like I'm looking at lightning. Since the day that you struck me, it's like my black clouds are whitening. Nobody got me 'til you were standing beside me. I was better off dead 'til you shook up my head. And that's why, I'ma ride or die. I'm your ride or die bitch, I'll never ask why. You know that I got you, you know I won't cry. I'm your ride or die bitch, nowhere to hide. Call me your Bonnie, I'll call you my Clyde like whoop whoop. When you hear those sirens coming, boy, whoop whoop. We're never gonna freeze, whoop whoop. When they wonder who's running, boy, whoop whoop. That's the sound of the police. Whoop whoop. When you hear those sirens coming, boy, whoop whoop. We're never gonna freeze, whoop whoop. When they wonder who's running, boy, whoop whoop. That's the sound of the police. Whoop whoop, that's the sound of the police. Whoop whoop, that's the sound of the police. Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh.

Well, I bought that big black Cadillac and I took off down the road. Adjust my rear view mirror, then I spied that police Ford. They was coming after me, boy, with their red lights all aglow. So I whacked that wheel around and I cut off down the road. That big machine wouldn't make the turn, and the cops they grabbed hold of me. And the last I saw my Cadillac, it was wrapped around a tree. I want a Cadillac mister dealer. I want a Cadillac mister dealer. Yeah, a Cadillac mister dealer. I gotta have a Cadillac mister dealer. I want a Cadillac mister dealer. I want a Cadillac mister dealer.

Oh I need somebody to tell me everything is alright. Don't you know I need somebody to squeeze and hold me tight. I said I. Oh I. I said I. Oh I. Listen to me, baby. I have no one. I have no one.

Well I was tooling down the highway in my beat up '53, smoking like a steamship with the police after me. When I passed the business district, just then I saw a Cadillac Motor sign saying, trade your run down car. Well I pulled up in the alley, tore my clutch right out the floor. I was half way in the dealer's when the cops flew by the door. I want a Cadillac, mister dealer. Black, tail fin, '59. I want a Cadillac, mister dealer. One that will blast off from the line. And when I hit that open roadway, man, I really want to fly. Highway boy.

I have no one, no. I have no one. I said I need somebody, somebody to love me. I need somebody, somebody to hold me. I said I. Oh I, I said I. Oh yeah. Listen to me, baby. I have no one. I have no one.

Oh, one hour, two hour, three hour, four. Ain't enough to know? Think you need some morе. Oh, just a few hours to swallow you whole. Think it changed your mind? How about a lifetime? 'Cause it's twenty-four-seven commitment. It don't matter what you're dealing with. Like a train that speeds right through the station. Takes all of you to keep up with it. If you think you might break, then you can relate to the brand new mother in me. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh.

It takes twenty-four hours to get it. It takes twenty-four hours indeed. And you'll swim in these pools of resentment. You'll first have why I've been so damn mean. If you had no escape, maybe you could relate to the brand new mother in me.

Come do 24 hours in my shoes. Yeah, just 24 hours and see how it feels to be totally selfless. Say goodbye to your moment to breathe. If you felt at this weight, maybe you could relate to the brand new mother and me.

Do what you're gonna do. I'll be the fool that is waiting for you. Say what you wanna say. Right on the edge but I like it that way. I said, oh my god, I'm terrified of your ice cold heart and those hellish eyes. Ooh, I can't lie. Ooh, I'm terrified. Oh my god, I'm terrified of your ice cold heart and those hellish eyes. Ooh, I can't lie. Ooh, I'm terrified. Oh my god, I'm terrified. And I just can't move, I'm paralyzed. Ooh, I can't lie. Ooh, I'm terrified.

Where did all the love go? Where did all the love go? Where did all the love go? Where did all the love go? Where did all the love go? Do do do do do. Do do do do do. Do do do do do. Where did it go? Where did the love go?

There's a snake in my chest trying to strangle my heart. Yeah, I know that he's a charmer but I'll never let him tear me apart. Honey, you better leave before I beg you to stay. Come and hunt me how you wanna. When you want me, baby, I'll be your prey. Oh my god. Oh my god. I said, oh my god, I'm terrified of your ice cold heart and those hellish eyes. Ooh, I can't lie. Ooh, I'm terrified. Oh my god, I'm terrified. And I just can't move, I'm paralyzed. Ooh, I can't lie. Ooh, I'm terrified.

Started out hot but it got us cool She had you on your knees like a no good fool. She tries to be your momma but it just won't do. 'Cause you can't do your momma, no, you can't can you. She can't change that weather, can't freeze time. Shake the stars loose I'm gonna change your mind. Hard to see it and most don't really feel it anyway. I got good love you're gonna feel it. Hard to see it and most don't really feel it anyway. I got good love you're gonna feel it. Hard to see it and most don't really feel it anyway. I got good love you're gonna feel it. Hard to see it and most don't really feel it anyway. I got good love you're gonna feel it.
