He's on a Contract
Sometimes I like to play the role of a villain
Watch the paperwork drive away all my fair weather friends
Sometimes I like to make the most of a lover
If that means putting it in words on paper
Then they sign their name
They say I fly around the world in a private jet
Made my mark from Paris to Phnom Penh
And I'll make them and I'll make them think they chose me, make them think they own me
But once we're more than friends...
Sick and tired of me
Sick and tired of me
And when they try to leave
Just show them article 3
Sometimes, I like to roll the dice on the players
See the world through their pink sunglasses that expire in three months
Sometimes, I let them speculate, board meetings
If that means I think you're thinking of leaving
I got to stake my claim somehow
They say I take more than they could ever get
Play the reckless desperate half-hearted Juliet
I'll make them think I'll make them think they chose me, make them think they own me
But what they don't know yet
Sick and tired of me
Sick and tired of me
And when they try to leave
Just show them article 3
Contract case, in a suit and tie
Negotiate till they comply
Making handcuffs and prenups look like wedding vows
You can keep your ring but not this dotted line
They say I fly around the world in a private jet
Battle scars for the damsel-in-distress
And I'll make them think I'll make them think they chose me, make them think they own me
But once we're more than friends...
Sick and tired of me
Sick and tired of me
And when they try to leave
Just show them article 3
Going out tonight
Paper in my pocket
Fight the briefcase battles baby
Pity I can't be your attorney
Do you promise to never leave me?
Watch the paperwork drive away all my fair weather friends
Sometimes I like to make the most of a lover
If that means putting it in words on paper
Then they sign their name
They say I fly around the world in a private jet
Made my mark from Paris to Phnom Penh
And I'll make them and I'll make them think they chose me, make them think they own me
But once we're more than friends...
Sick and tired of me
Sick and tired of me
And when they try to leave
Just show them article 3
Sometimes, I like to roll the dice on the players
See the world through their pink sunglasses that expire in three months
Sometimes, I let them speculate, board meetings
If that means I think you're thinking of leaving
I got to stake my claim somehow
They say I take more than they could ever get
Play the reckless desperate half-hearted Juliet
I'll make them think I'll make them think they chose me, make them think they own me
But what they don't know yet
Sick and tired of me
Sick and tired of me
And when they try to leave
Just show them article 3
Contract case, in a suit and tie
Negotiate till they comply
Making handcuffs and prenups look like wedding vows
You can keep your ring but not this dotted line
They say I fly around the world in a private jet
Battle scars for the damsel-in-distress
And I'll make them think I'll make them think they chose me, make them think they own me
But once we're more than friends...
Sick and tired of me
Sick and tired of me
And when they try to leave
Just show them article 3
Going out tonight
Paper in my pocket
Fight the briefcase battles baby
Pity I can't be your attorney
Do you promise to never leave me?
