Tricky

(Album: Cruel Cruel World - 2005)

If you ever find yourself
In a tricky kind of love
And you need a little help
I can be your ticket out
Even though our time has passed
And the love we have won't last
I will always be your friend
It'll never have to end

She said ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
Ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends

I was walking down the street one day and passed a pretty lady
She looked good to me and her booty got me crazy
I thought that I should talk to her instead of being lazy
But as I approached all my thoughts got hazy
I hailed a cab and said follow that Mercedes
I will if you want, but first you've got to pay me
I looked out the window and I noticed it was raining
The traffic got stuck so I fell into a daydream
My phone vibrated but I didn't feel like talking
Went down to the subway and I saw the chick was walking
Stopped at the store, had to do some food shopping
And Mark was cooking up a new beat he was dropping

I still think of you

If you ever find yourself
In a tricky kind of love
And you need a little help
I can be your ticket out
Even though our time has passed
And the love we have won't last
I will always be your friend
It'll never have to end

She said ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
Ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends

I was at a hipster party with my girlfriend down in Soho
They showed a movie of a girl shot in slo-mo
Pretended I was laughing but inside I wanted to go
Arrive with a partner, sneak away solo
Ran down the stairs and I kicked open the back door
Hit some guy and he called me a mofo
I looked up at the sky, saw the moon was beaming yellow
Why must I be such a messed-up fellow?
Went to a bar that was dirty and dingy
Met Lisa and Jacquelyn and Cheryl and Lindsey
You gotta pay the cover cos the bouncer be stingy
Got mad, walked home, hair got frizzy

I still think of you

If you ever find yourself
In a tricky kind of love
And you need a little help
I can be your ticket out
Even though our time has passed
And the love we have won't last
I will always be your friend
It'll never have to end

She said ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
Ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
