Wake me up before I drop out on you You treat me rough to show that you care And I just can't refuse baby If I had a promise from you I'd get up and out of my bed Instead I'll be subdued Wake me up before I drop out on you The TV lights is working all right It feels so good to lose baby If I had a promise from you I'd get up and out of my head Instead I'm so confused Let's sift through the haze of the past seven days Blow your mind A bubble bath Monday looks divine Let's trip through the maze Away from everybody's games If I stop grip on A sugar dip I guess I'm getting mine Was it just the margaritas or are you lookin' at me? Without a fuss you're getting us Ever so slightly messed up Is it just the margaritas or are you talkin' to me? Feels like I'm back at school Makes me want to break the rules Wake me up before I drop out on you You treat me rough to show that you care And I just can't refuse baby If I had a promise from you I'd get up and out of my bed Instead I'll be subdued Wake me up before I drop out on you The TV lights is working all right It feels so good to lose baby If I had a promise from you I'd get up and out of my head Instead I'm so confused Always feel we're fighting a war Always thought that you were so cool Now I realize you've been shared I think you're off your head Dressed up and put on my make up My best face just for you I'm sad to hear that you feel sugar Now you know what I can do Don't waste your time (Don't waste your time) You know my passion is to yours of mine Just read the signs (Just read the signs) Your passion belongs to me My feel tonight Wake me up before I drop out on you You treat me rough to show that you care And I just can't refuse baby If I had a promise from you I'd get up and out of my bed Instead I'll be subdued Wake me up before I drop out on you The TV lights is working all right It feels so good to lose baby If I had a promise from you I'd get up and out of my head Instead I'm so confused (Don't waste your time) (Don't waste your time) (Just read the signs)
