the future freaks me out

i'm on fire and now i think i'm ready to bust a move

check it out i'm rocking steady

go!

betty won't stop listening to modern rock

how she hates to be alone

i try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake

ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine she says hey

i rock the haro sport

i rock the cow girl blues

i rock too fast for love i'm footloose in my velcro shoes

what's up with will and grace?

i don't get drum and bass

the future freaks me out

i'm on fire and now i think i'm ready to bust a move

check it out i'm rocking steady

to the beat in my head

it goes oh

oh-oh-oh

i know that she's the only one

i'd rather waste our time together

yeah

'cause we can get down

betty can't quit carving question marks in my wrist

how come we're so alone

we waste away the days with nicotine and television samples

from an era we hate to admit we embrace

we fail to represent

we fail to be content

we fail at everything we ever even try to attempt

and so the story goes

as only betty knows

it's time to take control

i'm on fire and now i think i'm ready to bust a move

check it out i'm rocking steady

to the beat in my head

it goes oh

oh-oh-oh

i know that she's the only one

i'd rather waste my time with her

betty

i need you

i miss you

i'm so alone without you

to call up on the weekends with my cellular phone

betty it's so hard to relate

to the whole human race

i don't know where to begin

i don't know where to begin

if we can both find a way

to do the things that we say

we might not sit in our rooms

and drink our daydreams away

betty

i'm a dreamer

i'm not a vicious schemer

oh betty won't you. ah fuck it

i'm on fire and now i think i'm ready to bust a move

check it out i'm rocking steady

to the beat in my head

it goes oh

oh-oh-oh

i know that she's the only one

i'd rather waste our time together

yeah

'cause we can get down.
