Barely Legal

I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Oh, mama, running out of luck
But, like my sister, don't give a fuck
I wanna steal your innocence
To me, my life, it don't make any sense
Strange manners, I loved 'em so
Why won't you wear your new trench coat?

I should've worked much harder
I should've just not bothered
I never show up on weekdays
That's something that you learned yesterday
Said you a worker you'll be on time
Your little problems and all yours are mine
Come on and listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay

I just want to turn you down
I just want to turn you around
Oh, you ain't never had nothin' I wanted
But I want it all, I just can't figure out
No

And all together it went well
We might pretend we were best friends
Then she said, Oh, you're a freak
They ordered me to make mistakes
Together again, like the beginning
It all works somehow in the end
The things we did, the things we hide
For the record it's between you and I

I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Oh, mama, running out of love
But like my sister, don't give a fuck, no
I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life, it don't make sense
Strange manners, I loved 'em so
Why won't you wear your new trench coat?
I just want to misbehave
I just want to be your slave
Oh, you ain't never had nothing I wanted
But I want it all, I just can't figure out
Nothin'

And all together it went well
We might pretend we were best friends
Then she said, "Oh, I can wait"
They ordered me to make mistakes
Together again, like the beginning
It all works somehow in the end
The things we did, the things you hide
Oh for the record, that's my spin or you and I
