[00:07.32]There is no way I'm looking for a boyfriend
[00:13.55]There is no way I'm looking for a scene
[00:20.13]I need to save some dough
[00:23.43]I'm a working girl, you know
[00:26.74]I'll fend attention off I keep to myself
[00:33.53]I love my room, I'm getting used to sleeping
[00:40.02]Some nights I really like to lie awake
[00:46.62]I hear the midnight birds
[00:49.98]The message in their words
[00:53.24]The dawn will touch me in a way a boy could never touch
[00:57.79]Their promise never meant so much to me
[00:59.94]You have been warned, I'm warned to be contrary
[01:06.56]Backward at school, I wrote from right to left
[01:13.13]Teacher never cared for me
[01:16.43]Preacher said a prayer for me
[01:19.74]God help the girl, she needs all the help she can get
[01:26.54]I sit for hours just waiting for his phone call
[01:33.10]I'll leave the chocolate hidden in the fridge
[01:39.74]I'll play his messages
[01:42.92]Analyze his intonation
[01:46.31]Please stop me there, I'm even boring myself
[01:53.01]I think of him when I'm doing the dishes
[01:59.61]I think of him while looking in the sink
[02:06.24]This ain't no play on words
[02:09.52]My love for him is absurd
[02:12.83]If he gave me a sign I'd think about it for a week
[02:17.35]I'd build it up and then I'd turn him down
[02:19.22]You have been warned, I'm warned to be contrary
[02:26.14]Backward at school, I wrote from right to left
[02:32.74]Teacher never cared for me
[02:36.01]Preacher said a prayer for me
[02:39.29]God help the girl, she needs all the help she can get
