lyrics
Fussin’ with you
I could take you on back, we could leave it like that
If you want me to
But come on now, do you really got something better to do?
You do you
We could sing the verse where you grab your purse
But it wouldn’t do
Your wake-up call’s not calling for an hour or two
Starting to slip
I can fill it all in when you wear it that thin
But it’s nothing new
Come on now, do you really intend to keep both hands on your hips?
You can sing it flat that you love me like that
But it won’t do
Maybe I’ll be here to catch you when you lose your grip
Say what you want
Keep on talking like you’re the only one
Call my bluff
I’m always acting tough
Oh I’ve been looking down instead of looking up, up love
I’ve got a sleeve to tug
You’ve got that same old shrug
No need for fussin’ about it
Matching your step
No falling behind, gotta keep it in time
What you wanna do?
We could call it off or fall into a rhythm
Don’t forget
I know the way you work with your little smirk
But I feel it too
Move on through, maybe even break a sweat
Say what you want
You’re always talking like you’re the only one
Say what you want
Keep on talking like you’re the only one
Call my bluff
I’m always acting tough
Oh I’ve been looking down instead of looking up, up love
I’ve got a sleeve to tug
You’ve got that same old shrug
No need for fussin’ about it
Baby, won’t you call my bluff?
Why you always acting tough?
This album is a masterpiece. Like if Adele and Winehouse had made a record together. The soul in the lyrics and arrangement blows me away every time I listen to it, loving it more each time. One of those albums that in the breaks I am already excitedly humming or singing the upcoming song. Makes me wonder that you're not bigger than Adele. In my mind you're better. Stay real. nybomber
The "I don't wanna love you" has everything , rythm, fun, meaning. Makes you want to join in makes you remember a past love just has it all. I play it over and over sashapoo
