Lyrics

Leave Me Alone

Say you dominate you can never wait

To listen to the things that I have got to say

You're amorous, polygamous

And that's okay as long as I don't start to play

Say listen good

You know you should

Paradise is built inside an hour glass

I'm feminine but that don't mean

That I would want to travel second class

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my rhythm (yeah)

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my life

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my rhythm

Just leave me alone

Just leave me alone

Leave me alone if you want to stay mine

Leave me alone

Now I am you and you are me

The signs are right and it will fit eventually

It's hard to take you'd better break

A habit that has ruled for an eternity

It's your concern you'd better learn

I'll never belong to you or any other man

Take what I give and go and live

With someone else if you don't understand

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my rhythm

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my life

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my rhythm

Just leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone if you want to stay mine

Leave me alone

Leave me alone if you want to stay mine for awhile

Leave me alone if you want to stay mine for awhile

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my rhythm

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my life

Leave me alone 'cause I've got my rhythm

Just leave me alone

You think you're hot stuff

You think you're so cool
