[Verse 1]
I'm racing, 'cause waiting
Was never my strong point, now I'm counting to ten
You got me all foggy, damn
I only got to three again

[Pre Chorus]
Please excuse my temper, I don't mean to be rude
I just wanna get a little closer to you
I know I should know better, I'd just hate to lose
Your love to my short fuse

[Chorus]
Lately, all I ever get is a maybe
Tryin' to keep it cool, but I'm failing
Getting pretty good at testin' out my temper
And now it's almost daily, questioning my personality
Starting to think that you hate me, do you?
Tell me, 'cause you're testin' out my temper

[Verse 2]
Well, I hope that, that you have
Have a sense of humour, and you
Think that it's charming how
How rapidly I'm seeing red
[Pre Chorus]
Please excuse my temper, I don't mean to be rude
I just wanna get a little closer to you
I know I should know better, I'd just hate to lose
Your love to my short fuse

[Chorus]
Lately, all I ever get is a maybe
Tryin' to keep it cool, but I'm failing
Getting pretty good at testin' out my temper
And now it's almost daily, questioning my personality
Starting to think that you hate me, do you?
Tell me, 'cause you're testin' out my temper

[Bridge]
I don't wanna be someone who just can't figure it out
I don't wanna have somethin' that just keeps bringing me down
All I want is to somehow get you lovin' me now (Testin' out my temper), oh
I don't wanna be someone who just can't figure it out (Ooh)
I don't wanna have somethin' that just keeps bringing me down (Hoo-ooh)
All I want is to somehow get you lovin' me now (ooh)
(Testin' out my temper)

[Chorus]
Lately, all I ever get is maybe (Hate me)
Tryin' to keep it cool, but I'm failing (Mhm)
Getting pretty good at testin' out my temper (Testin' out my temper)
And now it's almost daily, questioning my personality (I don't wanna have something)
Startin' to think that you hate me, do you? (All I want is to somehow)
Tell me, 'cause you're testin' out my temper
[Outro]
Lately, all I ever get is a maybe
Tryna keep it cool, but I'm failing
You're getting pretty good at testing out my temper
Daily, questioning my personality
Starting to think that you hate me, do you?
Tell me, 'cause you're testing out my temper
