Rock Mafia
Careful With Words
[Verse 1]
Please stop calling on my cell
I've got enough voicemails
Don't you get the picture?
I don't return your e-mails, IM, or your texts
Messages are getting boring fast
I try to be careful with my words

[Chorus]
You're all over me, suffocating
I need to breathe, doorbells ringing
CD you sent, won't stop singing
How's that for being careful with words?
Careful, careful

[Verse 2]
No more flowers at my door
I've started to ignore
The smell of moldy petals
I must confess, you're desperate to get my attention
Shoppers we are closing, please go home
I try to be careful with my words

[Chorus]
You're all over me, suffocating
I need to breathe, doorbells ringing
CD you sent, won't stop singing
How's that for being careful with words?
Careful, careful
[Bridge]
First I was flattered by all the attention
I wanted to see where this would go
Then you got weird on me
Obsessin' to third degree
'Til I was ready to explode

[Breakdown]
None of these words have been rehearsed
I don't think they can be reversed
Sadly it's only one-sided
Only a matter of time before I
Have to confess what's on my mind
I told you where we were getting
Didn't I? (Didn't I?)

[Chorus]
You're all over me, suffocating
I need to breathe, doorbells ringing
CD you sent, won't stop singing
How's that for being careful with words?
You're all over me, suffocating
I need to breathe, doorbells ringing
CD you sent, won't stop singing
I was so careful I ran out of words
