Cupcake Lyrics


Do you know you're always on my mind?
I know we seek and we shall find
Somewhere to goMother, please
I'm feelin' low as can be
When will they see?Do you know you're always in my thoughts?
I know protection can't be bought
Somewhere to hideMother, please
I wanna cry, what a tease
When will they see?Come on
Now you got some time
I wanna hear it
'Cuz I need an answerI know youth dies young
But our youth's just begun
And ain't it a beautiful day?
'Cuz it's true, babyI need you
And damned if I say I do
Gertrude would approveI need you in the mornin'
I need you in the silent afterglow

Won't you let my lovin show, babyOh, anyone can tow the line
Except for me 'cuz I'm a disco dancer
All my life I've been a gopher with a grin
My smile is fadin' away 'cuz it's true, babyI need you
To shatter the status Q
Truman would approveI need you in the mornin'
I need you in the sunshine
Rain or snow
Won't you let my lovin' show, babyOtherwise I don't want to hear it
You got me talkin', talkin', talkin'
Well, it's better than you
'Cuz I say I don't wanna fear itThat look that says
Exactly what you think of me
'Cuz that's when you would be freeFrom my love
My love
Baby, babyCome on, honey
Stop denyin'
Or I'm forever gonna be a bachelor
Leave the steps of your houseGet down to the courthouse
Gimme a G and an A
Y, 'cuz it's true, babyI need you
I'm damned if I say I do
Jesus would approveI need you in the morning
I need you in the scarlet
Afterglow
Won't you let my lovin' show, babyI need you in the morn
Ah, I need you
To sustain my sorry soul
Won't you let my lovin' show, babyI need you, I need you, I need you
I said I don't wanna hear it
You got me talkin', talkin', talkin'
Well, it's better than youI need you, I need you
I need you, I need you
To get over the rainbow
Won't you let my lovin' showI need you, I need you
To get over the rainbow
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh babyI don't wanna hear it
I don't wanna hear it
I don't wanna hear it
You got me talkin', talkin', talkin'
Well, it's better than you
