I'm such a man for a short while
Promises be
The world just spins faster than me
(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends
I hear are whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends
Are hopelessly
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

Beauty or beast?
(Beauty or beast?)
Who's my character to be?
I'm now powdering
(I'm now powdering)
On the makeup that makes me
(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends
Are now whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends
Are hopelessly
I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy
And all of your friends
Are still whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends
Are hopelessly
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(You got it, you got it)
(Come on)

And all of your friends
Are now whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends
Are hopelessly
I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy
And all of your friends
Are still whispering
I think you left me for the government
And all of your friends
Are hopelessly
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(Energy, energy, energy, energy, ahh)
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy
(Energy, energy, energy, energy, ahh)
I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy
