Boy, you're so dumb, but, man, you got plenty potential
So quit making me wait, baby, don't you know I'm the one?

Here we go again, heart in my hand
Say it in words that you'll understand
But I know you don't even know when it happens (don't know when it happens)
One step forward, two steps back
Askin' me why I'm cryin' like that and you say: Well, maybe you're just overreactin' (you're overreactin')

Over and over again, we keep on playin' (uh-huh)
Part of me loves it, I guess I can't explain it (uh-huh)
We know we're here till the end, we're gonna make it (uh-huh)
Uh-huh, we're gonna make it

But, boy, you're so dumb, but, man, you got plenty potential
Don't you meet me halfway, baby, I want all of your love (woo, oh)
Baby, step up 'cause you know keeping me is essential (so quit making me wait)
Baby, don't you know I'm the one?

Man, I wonder if it's human nature
I wonder if we fight so we can make up and wake up stronger
So when I'm older, you keep lovin' me harder (keep lovin' me harder)

Yeah, we go over and over again, we keep on playin' (uh-huh)
Part of me loves it, I guess I can't explain it (uh-huh)
We know we're here till the end, we're gonna make it (uh-huh)
Uh-huh, we're gonna make it

Boy, you're so dumb, but, man, you got plenty potential (oh)
Don't you meet me halfway, baby, I want all of your love (your love, oh)
Boy, you better step up 'cause you know keeping me is essential (woah)
So quit making me wait (ooh)
Baby, don't you know I'm the one? (Uh-huh)

So don't be dumb, you got the potential
Even when you're makin' me mental
Don't give up on us, you know I'm the one (you know I'm the one)
(I said) don't be dumb, you got the potential
Oh, even when you're makin' me mental
Don't give up on us, you know I'm the one
