So I heard you found somebody else And at first I thought it was a lie I took all my things that make sounds The rest I can do without I don't want your body But I hate to think about you with somebody else Our love has gone cold You're intertwining your soul with somebody else I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone And then leaving with somebody else No, I don't want your body But I'm picturing your body with somebody else Come on baby This ain't the last time that I'll see your face Come on baby You said you'd find someone to take my place I just don't believe that you have got it in you 'cause We are just gonna keep 'doin' it' and everytime I start to believe in anything you're saying I'm reminded that I should be getting over it I don't want your body But I hate to think about you with somebody else Our love has gone cold You're intertwining your soul with somebody else I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone And then leaving with somebody else No, I don't want your body But I'm picturing your body with somebody else I don't want your body, I don't want your body I don't want your body, I don't want your body I don't want your body, I don't want your body Get someone you love? Get someone you need? F*ck that, get money I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone Get someone you love? Get someone you need?
