Paroles de You're Gettin' Even While I'm Gettin' Odd

My job was OK
I thought I was cruisin'
Little did I know
I was cruisin' for a bruisin'

Things were lookin' bad
But with you I had the goods
I couldn't see the trees
In love's deadly woods

I got smitten by a kitten
At the Kit-Kat club
Before I hit the brakes
I had hit the rub

You overheard me on the phone
When I told her goodbye
I got creamed in the face
With a reality pie

And now you're gettin' even
While I've been gettin' odd
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're Gettin' Even While I'm Gettin' Odd

Now there's safety in numbers Thinkin' about you, my great fetish
Like fishin' without a rod
I'm just sittin' here gettin' odd

You say that I hurt you
And it got you mad
You say that I burnt you
Now you're gettin' bad
I see you ain't jokin'
And I want your bod
But now you're gettin' even
While I've been gettin' odd

If I was an itch, would you bother to scratch?
If I was a pitch, would you bother to catch?
If I was peanut butter, would you be the jam?
If I was a door, would you give me a slam?

You've been gettin' even
While I've been gettin' odd

You're gettin' even
While I've been gettin' odd
Please come back, please come back
I just got to have your bod

You're gettin' even
While I've been gettin' odd
(He never meant to hurt you)
That's the truth, I swear to God
