Well I know it's been so long
It must be wrong of me to think
That all we built will surely sink
But you may just prove me wrong
I'd hate to peek behind your curtain
But I gotta to know for certain
With suits and ties you flirt, they lie, it's true
I've heard them bullsh** promises to you
But we owe it to ourselves
To make the most with what we're dealt
And so I'll trust you
Like I'm supposed to do
All the people in the mix
All after pleasure or for kicks
Out for new love or out for their fix
What they don't get is just this
While you treats are oh so sweet
You know our history repeats, so
All the troubles that happened yesterday
Will always come back to harm us both today
And now your big, big brother
Is all looking over my shoulder by now
And he don't like it when I take you
Out past your curfew
From the day that you're born
Till the day that you die
We'll keep on getting stuck
With our feet in the muck
With suits and ties you flirt, they lie, it's true
I've heard them bullsh** promises to you
But what you taught me from the start
Back at school was that
Those who make connections with your thighs
Touch the skies
And there's violence in your heart
From the day that you're born
Till the day that you die
You were on your way to the party
But you couldn't get inside
