To be lost in the forest 
To be cut adrift 
You've been trying to reach me 
You bought me a book 
To be lost in the forest 
To be cut adrift 
I've been paid 
I've been paid 

Don't get offended 
If I seem absent minded 
Just keep telling me facts 
And keep making me smile 
Don't get offended 
If I seem absent minded 
I get tongue-tied 
Baby, you've got to be more discerning 
I've known never known what's good for me 
I will be yours 

I'll pay for you anytime 

You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness 
Well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away 
You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness 
Jump right on 
Baby, you've got to be more discerning 
I've known never known what's good for me 
Baby, you've got to be more demanding 
I will be yours 

What are you holding out for? 
What's always in the way? 
Why so damn absent-minded? 
Why so scared of romance? 

This modern love breaks me 
This modern love wastes me 

Do you wanna come over and kill some time? 
Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts 
Tell me facts 
Throw your arms around me
