Verse
I got arrested in the dark of the night
The cop got restless as he read me my rights
He told me, I'm always envious of those that I jail
If I got locked up, nobody'd come to help me post bail
And I said Oh! Oh! Oooh Oooh (2x)
Went to a party on the side of a hill
Met three latinas who had gotten their fill
They told me, nobody ever gets us down on our knees
Simply to help us take a load off our feet
And I said Oh! Oh! Oooh Oooh (2x)
Chorus
(accuaracy? It may be different, but this works for me)
And I'm never sure what I'm living for,
But it's always on my mind
Someone comes along, always proves me wrong.
Think I'm gonna be fine.
Verse 2
I picked a pocket just to give it all back
Took out the license, left my money intact
The man said, I wanna thank thank you, and i had to ask why
That was the old me, I was living a lie
And I said Oh! Oh! Oooh Oooh (2x)
Riding the subway with the scent of her hair
She took out a toothbrush, started using it there.
She explained, I'm always sure today's the day I will die
I wanna look good if I get to look God in the eye
And I said Oh! Oh! Oooh Oooh (2x)
Chorus
BREAK/BRIDGE:
We get lost in the back of our minds
Got nothing to burn but time, time, time.
Everybody's got the love, but they keep it inside
We get lost in the back of our minds
Got nothing to burn but time, time, time
Everybody's got the love, but they keep it inside. Oh-oh-oh-oh
Verse 3
Met an acquaintance, we were re-introduced
With more in common than we had in our youth
She told me, You look the same
I said, I'm now a new man
She asked me How does that work?
I started giving a damn
And I said Oh! Oh! Oooh Oooh (bunch of times, finishes the song)
