My heart has been my teacher and I've learned quite a lot
Listened while I could and tried not t get caught in the
Bum badum badum badum badum

My heart is bound in leather like the book you sent
I filled it with words and I penned them again
Drip by drip by drip by drip by drip

Do yourself a favor, find a way
To get away

Hit me with your car, hit me with your best shot
I'll be standing there on the sidelines waiting
To see what it is that you've got

Do yourself a favor, find a way
To get away
(Hey-ey hey-ey hey ya da da da da
Da da-da, da da da da da)

And when the summer sun comes yo might shape up
Go back to being yourself and to the ones you love
And when the summer sun comes you might just say
"I gotta find a way to get away"

And when the summer sun comes yo might shape up
Go back to being yourself and to the ones you love
And when the summer sun comes you might just say
"I gotta find a way to get away"
(Hey-ey hey-ey hey ya da da da da)

My heart has been my teacher and I've learned quite a lot
Listened while I could and tried not t get caught in the
Bum badum badum badum badum
