I've got the rhythm, she's got the moves
All tight fits in all the right grooves
She'll cut the rug if I cut her loose
I got the rhythm; she's got the moves

Every sugar rush ends in a crash.
Every week's got a flavor but it never lasts
Mmm, bad taste, I'm guilty of that I know
Well I've never been a Class A act.
I'm an over achiever with my courtesy laughs
But I can fake a mean heart attack when I'm losing control
Yeah, I know what I like.
I know where I stand, 3 steps behind a girl I once had
I took 2 steps right, I got 1 step left
She'll weaken my knees until I can't stand

But she moves on oh so fast, slithered on by
like a snake in tall grass
I couldn't keep up my front with no backbone
Well this time it wasn't an act.
I threw a pity party, gave myself a pat on the back
Cause pure integrity is something I lack when I'm losing control
I know what I like.
I know where I stand.
I left my mark then she shed that skin.
I took 2 steps right, I got 1 step left
Should have knocked on wood before we shook hands
Because I'm breaking down, this is not who I am
The girl walks on water while I sink in quick sand

With her I'm a better man
Together we make wrong right
I'd hold onto her forever if she'd give me one last shot

I know what I like. I know where I stand,
3 steps behind this girl I wish I had
2 steps right, I got 1 step left to the only one that will light my fire
She's my perfect match
