Lyrics

Sex

Sex
It is the reason why
It happens all the time
You might even like it a little bit

It doesn't hurt to try
Sometimes the hurting's why
You might even cry just a little bit

Sex, to me
It's just a mystery
And a lie we tell
Together we can prove it
Sex, to her, it's just a bad word
We don't understand
But you don't need to to do it

I think I had it once
I think I had a bunch
I might even lie just a little bit

It's what I'm thinking of
Some people call it love
I might even finish it way too quick

Sex, to me
It's just a mystery
And a lie we tell
Together we can prove it
Sex, to her, it's just a bad word
We don't understand
But you don't need to to do it

Sex, to me
There is no guarantee
That the feeling's there
Together we can lose it
Sex, to her
It's just a bad word
We could talk all night
But it's better to do it

Like it's homework
Like a chore
Like it's something never done before
Like it's over
But there's more
Like I own you
Like I'm yours
