I needed more than just a kiss goodnight Had to go get something out my system I ignored the warnings, bit the fruit She might have tasted good But man she was my kryptonite Shoulda known she was trouble from the start I, knew she'd broken hearts I, thought I'd take that chance Danced with the she devil in the pale moonlight Alarm bells rang, but I loved the drama In a dark place but I loved the karma sutra Shoulda closed that door But I kept going back for more She's electric, she's the current running through my veins She's a siren, hearing voices that I can't explain Now I should be thinking it over Instead I'm calling her over Now she's here and she won't go quietly I Should be thinking it over Instead I'm calling her over Now she's here but she won't go quietly I needed more than just a cheap thrill ride See I needed something that ran deep inside Ignored the warnings, bit the fruit She might have tasted good But man she was my kryptonite Shoulda known it wouldn't last for a year I, knew it'd all end it tears I, cracked, she was mind addictive, never felt scripted Upredicatable, tied up, but no strings attatched Left scratch marks on my back Her cold eyes got me excited and I can't hide the truth She's electric, she's the current running through my veins (I just can't kick the habit) (I just can't kick the habit) She's a siren, hearing voices that I can't explain (I just can't kick the habit) Now I should be thinking it over Instead I'm calling her over Now she's here and she won't go quietly I should be thinking it over Instead I'm calling her over Now she's here and she won't go quietly Can't see the end of this or who survives It's just another case of do or die Can't see the end of this or who survives It's just another case, another case, another case another case, another case She's electric, she's the current running through my veins (I just can't kick the habit) (I just can't kick the habit) She's a siren, hearing voices that I can't explain (I just can't kick the habit) Now I, should be thinking it over Instead I'm calling her over Now she's here and she won't go quietly I should be thinking it over Instead I'm calling her over Now she's here and she won't go quietly Can't see the end of this or who survives It's just another case of do or die Can't see the end of this or who survives It's just another case of do or die Can't see the end of this or who survives It's just another case of do or die
