I always seem to fall in love with the wrong person You whisper in my ear, all the things you thought I'd want to hear Your approach was much too strong instead of love we're in the danger zone But baby there are better ways to get to know someone and I've always been the type to never bite my tongue So cool it out, I'm not gonna change my mind I like you just the way you are girl, do I have to shout, I'm asking you please don't talk dirty to me I really don't think it's time to try to seduce me with your lines Why you wann try something new, in my opinion I just call it rude If you take a moment just to notice I'm into you So those words can't make my feelings stronger to tell the truth It's not ladylike you should try to show some class Have some finesse girl you're the best Do I have to shout, I'm asking you please Don't talk dirty to me, no no
