amateur lovers

everyone i know

needs love like drugs

like a common cold

we could never shrug

my baby and me

we're missing the same stuff

we've all got a disease

deficiency of love

every day we still try

every night we still cry

driving home on the 805

we don't know what we're doing

we do it again

we're just amateur lovers

with amateur friends

i can tell you what you're thinking now

before you think it you can settle down

we don't know what we're doing

let's do it again!

try to play it down

but it never stuck

i tried to bail this town

i'm getting no such luck

when nobody's around

i keep my eyes on the clock

there ain't a cure i've found

in all my times around this block

everyday we still try

every night we still cry

we drive it home on the 405

i can tell you what you're thinking now

before you think it you can settle down

our lovin' isn't gonna burn us out

professional!?!
