I don't wanna be what you want me to be So when I call you're just yelling at me I'm sorry, it's my fault It's over (Now what do you keep standing there for?) Now what do you keep calling for? What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (Now what do you keep standing there for?) Now what do you keep calling for? What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (It's over) In the back of my mind, I question why I keep calling I guess I'm just used to getting my way, I'm spoiled I don't wanna be what you want me to be So when I call you're just yelling at me I'm sorry, it's my fault Oh, the clothes I bought, you can still wear Did you store the cards and teddy bears? Ooh, yeah See, there I go again sticking my nose I'm sorry, it's my fault (Now what do you keep standing there for?) Now what do you keep calling for? What do you keep calling for?

I know I won't forget that But we had some bad times and that's time I wish I could get back We could've had it all, but I guess we'll never know You been around me long enough to know that now it's over (Now what do you keep standing there for?) Now what do you keep calling for? What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (Now what do you keep standing there for?) Now what do you keep calling for? What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for? (It's over) What do you keep calling for?
