Shut up Just shut up Shut up [3x] Shut it up, just shut up Shut up Just shut up Shut up [3x] Shut it up, just shut up We try to take it slow But we're still losin' control And we try to make it work But it still ends up the worst And I'm craaazzzy For tryin to be your lady I think I'm goin crazy Girl, me and you were just fine (you know) We wine and dine Did them things that couples do when in love (you know) Walks on the beach and stuff (you know) Things that lovers say and do I love you boo, I love you too I miss you a lot, I miss you even more That's why I flew you out When we was on tour But then something got out of hand You start yellin when I'm with my friends Even though I had legitimate reasons (bull shit) You know I have to make them dividends (bull shit) How could you trust our private lives girl That's why you don't believe my lies And quit this lecture We try to take it slow But we're still losin' control And we try to make it work But it still ends up the worst And I'm craaazzzy For tryin to be your lady I think I'm goin crazy Why does he know she gotta move so fast Love is progress if you could make it last Why is it that you just lose control Every time you agree on takin it slow So why does it got to be so damn tough Cause fools in lust could never get enough of love Showin him the love that you be givin Changing up your livin For a lovin transistion Girl lip so much she tryin to get you to listen Few mad at each other has become our tradition You yell, I yell, everybody yells Got neighbors across the street sayin â??Who the hell?!?â?? Who the hell? What the hell's going down? Too much of the bickering Kill it with the sound and We try to take it slow But we're still losin' control And we try to make it work But it still ends up the worst And I'm craaazzzy For tryin to be your lady I think I'm goin crazy Girl our love is dyin Why did you stop tryin I never been a quitah But I do deserve betta Believe me I will do bad Let's forget the past And let's start this new plan Why? 'cause it's the same old routine And then next week I hear them scream Girl I know you're tired of the things they say You're damn right 'cause I heard them lame dame excuses just yesterday That was a different thing No it ain't That was a different thing No it ain't That was a different thing It was the same damn thing Same ass excuses Boy you're usless Whhoooaaaa We try to take it slow But we're still losin' control And we try to make it work But it still ends up the worst And I'm craaazzzy For tryin to be your lady I think I'm goin crazy Stop the talking baby Or I start walking baby (x12) Is that all there is (x12)
