Once knew a girl by the name of Emily Who I would go and visit on the downtown seat She promised me love but it didn't come free And I don't mean money but the way she'd be like
"It makes no sense to me why You can't just stay with me tonight You're the apple of my eye" S... like that so I never went back but
Now they've come to take me away What have I done to be so afraid Staring down the barrel of a gun
And lady I don't know you, you don't know me any better Better listen what I'm sayin, cause this means Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all Lady tell me the truth, can we trust to the letter? Better listen what I'm saying, cause this means Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Check it Always known a girl by the name of Christine Who I've been macking on since the age of 19 She could lead me on like a border collie But I still keep coming like I hit the ground runnin' sayin'
"I'll do my hair up real fly I'll wear brand names that you like You're the apple of my eye" S... like that but she never called back so
Now they've come to take me away What have I done to be so afraid To turn her off like a television
And lady I wanna know you, don't you wanna know me better Better listen what I'm saying, or is this Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all Lady I'm telling the truth, trust me to the letter Better listen to what I'm saying, or is this Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Guess it was something I said That put those thoughts in your head Guessing you're better off dead If you can't make me notice
Guess it was something you said That put those thoughts in my head Guessing I'm better off dead If I can't make you notice
All in all the damage is done Why can't we turn it off and on like a television Now I'm staring down the barrel of a gun Because I can't make you notice a reaction
And lady I don't know you, you don't know me any better Better listen what I sayin' cause this means Nothing, nothing, nothing at all Lady tell me the truth can we trust to the letter? Gotta listen what I'm saying, cause this means Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
