Once knew a girl by the name of Emily
Who I would go and visit on the downtown scene
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 my why
You can't just stay with me tonight
You're the apple of my eye"
Shit 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 to what I'm saying
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 mackin' on since the age of nineteen
She can lead me on like a border collie
But I still keep coming like I hit the ground running
Saying;
"I'll do my hair up real fly
I'll wear brand names that you like
You're the apple of my eye"
Shit 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 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 her head
Guessing I'm better you're dead
If you can't make me notice
Guess it was something you said
That put these thoughts in my head
Guessing I'm better off dead
If I can't make you notice
All in all the damage is done
Can't we turn it on and off like a television?
I'm staring down the barrel of a gun
Because I can't make you notice
A reaction
Lady, I don't know you
You don't know me any better
Better listen what I'm saying
Cause this means nothing, nothing, 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
Nothing at all
Who I would go and visit on the downtown scene

And I don't mean money, but the way she'd be
