He's not sure what he should do
She's seventeen, he's twenty-two
Is that too much of a difference?

So instead look what he's done
He's found a girl who's thirty-one
Is that too much of a difference?

She's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

She's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

She's got a mate who says behave
You're not too bad but twice her age
Does that really make any difference?

He's had a few, we've all been there
Just seventeen but he don't care
I don't think he knows the difference

'Cause she's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

She's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

His mates found out, he feels a fool
They saw her on the bus to school
Should that really make any difference?

What would her dad say if he knew
She's on her knees, he's twenty-two
I don't think he'd like the difference
Does that really make any difference?

'Cause she's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

She's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

'Cause she's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)

She's got everything he wants
She's got everything he needs
(Take her back, take her back, take her back)
(Take her back, take her back, take her back to her place)
