英文摇滚歌曲：Set It Off - Third Wheel

i've been thinking for a while now,
and no i don't doubt,
that he's ever gonna give it a rest.
the conversation didn't take place,
i'll need a neck brace¹,
to give him if he tries to see her face.
this gnat² lurks³ around and never obeys,
another mental breakdown⁴ saves the day,
while you cry i'll try my best to convey,
in every way, i adore to say...
i think that i'm falling for you,
and now i'm not sure what he's going to do,
and so he's beggin' me beggin' me to just stay away,
because i'm gonna get my baby,
i'm gonna get my baby tonight.
third wheel try and deal your best hand,
you bet i can't stand,
every little thing you stand for,
a salesman waiting at the door,
like a filthy⁵ whore,
i'll leave you lonely and abandoned.
this gnat lurks around and never obeys,
another mental breakdown saves the day,
while you cry i'll try my best to convey,
in every way, i adore to say...
i think that i'm falling for you,
and now i'm not sure what he's going to do,
and so he's beggin' me beggin' me to just stay away,
because i'm gonna get my baby,
i'm gonna get my baby tonight.
you think you're in like sin,
but you're way too far behind,
you excel in sabotage⁶,
this dark collage⁷,
of everything you've tried to destroy.
keep trying,
keep lying,.
you'll never find your way to her heart.
i think that i'm falling for you,
and now i'm not sure what he's going to do,
and so he's beggin' me beggin' me to just stay away,
because i'm gonna get my baby,
i'm gonna get my baby tonight.
yeah,
i think that i'm falling for you,
and now i'm not sure what he's going to do,
and so he's beggin' me beggin' me to just stay away,
because i'm gonna get my baby,
i'm gonna get my baby tonight.
