I usually avoid any kind of confrontation
Conversation moderation
Lips sealed but my fingers are flying
And hours the hours pass they grow more impatient
My phone is magnetic
Especially when I''''m sauced up
And I admit that I''''m ashamed
But there''''s Melissa
Theresa and Emily what a toss up
But that''''s the best part of the game
And I'm really an anonymous aspiring alcoholic drowning the days pain in hops barley and grain
Thinking of ways to convince one to join me in the company of low-lifes sort doing the same
So I start texting I keep texting
I can't stop it's my obsession
It's like fish and my words are like lures
If they bought the bait cool If not call it a night
Weekend like we should have and I know
And I try to be a good boy but it's hard
I start texting I keep texting
I can't stop it's my obsession
Now ask yourself this;
Is love a tender thing
Too rough too rude too boisterous
Well I'll tell you what man
I had it once it was fun but not enough
Tis torture not mercy
Heaven is where my phone lives
In my pocket so cozy oh what a joy replies give
Well Melissa's babysitting and Theresa's working late
Emily's on her way to East 11th on the train
And that's when I remember Patty from West Philly she said "I"m in your area three minutes away"
So I stop texting no more texting
Yeah right it's my obsession
It's like fish and my words are like lures
If they bought the bait cool If not call it a night
Weekend like we should have and I know
And I try to be a good boy but it's hard
Weekend like we should have and I know
And I try to be a good boy but it's hard
I start texting I keep texting
I can't stop it's my obsession
I think I love him so I told him but in a text message
I know you think I'm reckless move so fast slow down
He wrote back “Me too I was just sitting here thinkin' bout you”
I know I want to but I can't and I shouldn't
Try to put my phone down damn but I couldn't
Stayed on the phone with him all night long
Text message when I'm gone
Weekend like we should have and I know
And I try to be a good boy but it's hard
Weekend like we should have and I know
And I try to be a good boy but it's hard
