My baby don't mess around

Because she loves me so

This I know fo sho!

But does she really wanna

But can't stand to see me walk out the door

Don't try to fight the feeling

Because the thought alone is killin' me right now

Thank God for Mom and Dad

For sticking to together

Like we don't know how

Hey ya! Hey ya!

Hey ya! Hey ya!

Hey ya! Hey ya!

Hey ya! Hey ya!

You think you've got it

Oh, you think you've got it

But got it just don't get it when there's nothin' at all

We get together

Oh, we get together

But separate's always better when there's feelings involved

Know what they say -its:

Nothing lasts forever!

Then what makes it, then what makes it

Then what makes it, then what makes it

Then what makes love the exception?

So why, oh, why, oh

Why, oh, why, oh, why, oh

Are we still in denial when we know we're not happy here
