There's no sign on the gate and there's mud on your face Don't ya think it's time we re-investigate this situation? Put some fruit on your plate You've forgotten how it started. Close your eyes think of all the bubbles of love we made, and you're down on your knees it's too late. Oh don't come crawlin' and you lie by my feet. what a big mistake. I see you fallin' got a buzz in my head and my flowers are dead. Can't figure out a way to rectify this situation. I don't believe what you said you forgotten how it started Close your eyes think of all the bubbles of love we made and you're down on your knees it's too late. Oh don't come crawlin' and you lie by my feet. what a big mistake. I see you fallin' I could sting like a bee. Careful how you treat me baby I don't think I'll accept your sorry invitation. Close the door as you leave and you cry over me. I can't wait. I feel you stallin' and you try to reach me. What a big mistake. I hear you calling. (Chorus)
