I don't know what I've done
Or if I like what I've begun
But something told me to run
And honey you know me it's all or none
There were sounds in my head
Little voices whispering
That I should go and this should end
Oh and I found myself listening
'Cos I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
See I thought love was black and white
That it was wrong or it was right
But you ain't leaving without a fight
And I think I am just as torn inside
'Cos I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
And I won't be far from where you are if ever you should call
You meant more to me than anyone I ever loved at all
But you taught me how to trust myself and so I say to you
This is what I have to do
'Cos I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood

I don't know what I've done
Or if I like what I've begun
But something told me to run
And honey you know me it's all or none
There were sounds in my head
LIttle voices whispering
That I should go and this should end
Oh and I found myself listening
'Cos I dont know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
See I thought love was black and white
That it was wrong or it was right
But you ain't leaving without a fight
And I think I am just as torn inside
'Cos I dont know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood
And I won't be far from where you are if ever you should call
You meant more to me than anyone I ever loved at all
But you taught me how to trust myself and so I say to you
This is what I have to do
'Cos I dont know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should
'Cos she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand where I stood

Calls him daddy, calls him man
Another girl that they call Britney
Johnny sits and mans the phones
From the corner, he'll come get you
She wakes in the cold gray dawn
Football games they make me yawn
Cellophane and stomach aches
Pillow talk and perfume breaks
A married man with an estate
A hairdresser that swears he's straight
Her alimony is once a month
She beats the kid, he plays the drums
And oh, oh, oh, life goes by
With your Mardi Gras high
And your tenderloin low
Second hand blues and money to blow
When you get tired and arrested
There's something you should know
At least he's going home
The undercover makes the bust
But not before he gets a touch
Good ones copy, great ones steal
The rest of us we almost feel
And oh, oh, oh, life goes by
With your Mardi Gras high
And your tenderloin low
Second hand blues and money to blow
When you get tired and arrested
There's somewhere you can go
Between the blue and gold
He's gonna get a pension
Eleven years go to
The world's oldest profession
Ain't never gonna fold
With fortunes being told
With your Mardi Gras high
And your tenderloin low
Second hand blues and money to blow
When you get tired and arrested
There's something you should know

And I
Will close my eagle eyes
Hang up my skin to dry
We were wasted son
We were wasted all
On the ride
From the nightclub
To our drive
All the way we sank
And from
The flat above the square
We watch our comrades bare
Their teeth, their souls, their flesh
We were wasted son
We were wasted all
On the ride
From the nightclub
To our drive

Uh Can you let me out, Shorty please can you let me out
Judge please can you let me out, judge please can you let me out

And I don't want ever go free, Hands up shorty got me
Handcuffed and arrested, I'm in love I'm so guilty

But he can't, Cupid be the judge of this game, just break it up like Mills Lane
But I can't I need to find some order
But first let me call my lawyer, I'm arrested
[CHORUS]

Got me stumblin and my heart fumblin, What have I stumbled in
Gotta make a collect call today, I mean something like a GTA
Got my H-E-A-R-T right out of my chest
With no chance of parole I guess, I'm arrested
[CHORUS]
[B-SECTION]
Walked up in the door, said I can't take it no more girl I'm ready to go
She said no, I'm like whoa, Just think about it, girl we goin through some bullshit
Arguin and boxin while my little man's watchin
You keep sayin you gon' find you a better man
Should I go should I stay, who gives a damn

Plus I hear your little friends all in your ear tellin you I'm cheatin
When I'm out in the streets And I know I piss you off just a little bit
But I ain't goin nowhere, girl I'm arrested
