I don't wanna clear the cobwebs from my head Time will bring them back, I bet So if you hear me say that I believe in love Don't make me feel ashamed I used to sing the saddest songs And in the meantime, roaches used to climb my door Falling back down to the floor I used to read survival guides When my world was full of seven legged cats But here I am with eight more lives I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Ready to get it on I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Now that I'm not alone Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh You know it Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh You better not ignore it I don't wanna look at fashion magazines While someone does my nails Sitting here watching other people live Frozen by the fear to fail 'Cause every day there's a war to fight And if I win or lose, never mind As long as you're my shelter every night I used to cry against a wall But now I've got a shoulder that I can lean on Swear to me you won't be gone I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Ready to get it on I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Now that I'm not alone 'Cause every day there's a war to fight And if I win or lose, never mind As long as you're my shelter every night I used to cry against a wall But now I've got a shoulder that I can lean on Swear to me you won't be gone I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Ready to get it on I'm ready for the good times I'm ready for the good times Now that I'm not alone Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh You know it Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh You better not ignore it
