I'm on fire and now I think Im ready to bust a move
Check it out Im rocking steady
Go!
Betty wont stop listening to modern rock
How she hates to be alone
I try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake
Ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine she says hey
I rock the Haro sport
I rock the cowgirl blues
I rock too fast for love Im footloose in my velcro shoes
Whats up with Will Grace?
I dont get drum and bass
The future freaks me out
I'm on fire and now I think ready to bust a move
Check it out Im rocking steady
To the beat in my head
It goes oh, oh, oh, oh
I know she's the only one
Id rather waste our time together
Yea, cause we can get down
Betty cant quit carving question marks in my wrist
How come were so alone
We waste away the days with nicotine and television samples
From an era we hate to admit we embrace
We fail to represent
We fail to be content
We fail at everything we ever even try to attempt
And so the story goes
As only Betty knows
Its time to take control
I'm on fire and now I think ready to bust a move
Check it out I'm rocking steady
To the beat in my head
It goes oh, oh, oh, oh
I know she's the only one
Id rather waste my time with her
(Betty, I need you
I miss you
Im so alone without you
To call up on the weekends with my cellular phone)
Betty its so hard to relate
To the whole human race
I dont know where to begin
I dont know where to begin
If we can both find a way
To do the things that we say
We might not sit in our rooms
And drink our daydreams away
Betty, Im a dreamer
No im not a vicious schemer
Oh betty wont you.. ah fuck it
I'm on fire and now I think ready to bust a move
Check it out Im rocking steady
To the beat in my head
It goes oh, oh, oh, oh
I know she's the only one
Id rather waste our time together
Yeah, cause we can get down.
