She's going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taken her granted
She wants to see if there's more than he gave, she's lookin for,
He calls her up he's trippin' on the phone now
He doesn't want her out there and alone now
Knows she's moving it, knows she's using it
Now he's losing it and she don't care

Everybody put your hands up say, I don't wanna be in love,
Feel the beat now if you got nothing left say I don't wanna be in love
Don't give up now, you got a reason to live say, I don't wanna be in love
Feeling good now, don't be afraid to get down say, I don't wanna be in love 

He was always giving her attention
Working hard to buy the things she mentioned
He was dedicated by most suckers hated
That girl was fine but she didn't appreciate him
She calls him up, she's trippin on the phone now
He had to get out and he ain't coming home now
Now lets try to forget it that's how he got with her
When he first met her and when they first got together

To the beat , to the beat, to the beat, you got nothing to lose don't be afraid to get down
We break up, its something that we do now,
Everyone has got to do it sometime
Its o.k., let it go, get out there and find someone (some more)
Its too late to be trippin' on the phone here
Get off the wire everything is good here
Stop what you are doingyou don't wanna ruin the sex that you got to find a new one
