It seems you wanna give me
Oh, a life time of security
Down on your dying knees

I watch you, babe, I watch you plead

But your words come much too late

My love for you has turned to hate
'Cause you've taken too much time
To show me that you're mine


When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy

One that won't stand up for herself
When I knock you down
You'll need another town

Where somebody's gonna talk to you
You just let me wait
Now it's too late

For your delayed, delayed devotion

You try to convince me

Oh, about the possibilities
But I know that all your poetry
Just comes from insecurity


'Cause your actions speak nothing no more
When it's what I've been waiting for

'Cause you've taken too much time



To show me that you're mine

When I drop you boy

You'll need another toy
One that won't stand up for herself
When I knock you down

You'll need another town
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
'Cause you just let me wait

Now it's too late
For your delayed devotion


You played me for a fool for too long
Blinded by your lies I never saw your all
I'm no longer under your spell

Hear it in a song
You can go to Hell


When I drop you boy
You'll need another toy
One that won't stand up for herself

When I knock you down
You'll need another town
Where somebody's gonna talk to you

You just let me wait
And now its too late
For your delayed, delayed devotion
