[Verse 1]
Sittin' outside your door
About to break down
Fourth time this week
Somebody's come around
Who's it gonna be tonight?
Who's the lucky man?
Where you get the attitude
I'll never understand
Uh oh, here he comes now
So happy that he came
Hey! Was it good boy?
Thoughts on her aim?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
What goes on inside your head
That makes you want to take them all to bed?

[Chorus]
Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You know you gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
Ah! Oh oh, yeah

[Verse 2]
When I call you on the phone
You act so unconcerned (I wanna)
I wanna get you all alone (ooh, baby)
To show you what I've learned
Why you won't give me the time of day (why you won't give me the time of day)
You won't give me some time (you won't give me some time)
You won't give me anything
God, you think you're too fine
Can't you see?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All I want is a little time
I've been playing with my toy so much I'm gonna go blind

[Chorus]
Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about

[Chorus]
You gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You know you gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
Stop!
