The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck
I wanna be your manchild
Let's all go it hog-wild
She said I'll see you later
I always gravitate to her
Let's all meet at the station
No heavy concentration
We could all hook up there
The kids are all alright there
Should we go out later
Showtime for strangers
Dontcha give a fuck anymore now
She's givin up on you now
Do it for the kids they say
It ain't about you anyway
I say we're all grown up now
And sex ain't so safe now
It's all in the groove they say
Doesn't matter anyway
Keep me runnin' like a deer in the headlights
All for nothing I thought
Just the ransom I had bought
About the day I tried to tame her
Never tried to blame her
Just a game that I had bought
Let's all meet at the station
No heavy concentration
The kids are all alright there
Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck
Should we go (should we go) out later
(Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck)
Showtime (showtime) for strangers
(Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck)
