21

She came to see me and I let her in
She's in the bathroom she was drinking gin
I let her out and I locked the door
And took her up to the sixteenth floor
She came around to go back home
She's telling me that I am too slow
It ain't me, it must be a friend
She's telling me that this is the end
She fell in love with me and took it so easy
She's only 21 and trying to please me
I took it in, all in my stride
There's only one thing that he's trying to hide
She came to see me and I let her in
Again, she's in the bathroom, drinking gin
I let her out and I locked the door
And told my friends she ain't worth it anymore
She came around to go back home
She's telling me that I am too slow
It ain't me, it must be my friend
She's telling me that this is the end
She fell in love with me and took it so easy
She's only 21 and trying to please me
I took it in, all in my stride
There's only one thing that he's trying to hide
