Outside Villanova :
                                     
And now i'm trying to decide if i feel dirty at all
          
cause it gets hard to tell
                                                
it's never just black and white she's got a mind of her own
         
and she uses it well
                                              
so she invites me over outside villanova
                                    
she's got some pull-out sofa that we won't hardly need
                          
she is only drinking soda revving up that motor
                               
got places we could go to but i still won't believe
                 
that she's only gifted
                         
when i'm standing by her side
              
she goes unassisted
                          
and i start to relax as i cut her some slack

CHORUS
            
so get up i gotta go to work
                               
facing all these people who now know i'm a jerk
                    
and it's a set-up i gotta change my clothes
                                     
concealing all this evidence before everybody knows
                                                    
what i've done      and what i'm gonna do      …again

                                       
and in the middle of the night i have a breakdown of sorts
        
with regret creeping in
                                 
she's gonna put up a fight and she will get her way
           
cause she loves sleeping in
                                   
so i need someone to side with when she begins confiding
                                 
and i cannot provide it cause i'm endlessly cold
                             
she says she's so excited to play some groom and bride
                              
with me but i'm undecided so I need to be told
                 
that she's only sinking
                         
when i'm sleeping by her side
                  
with a change of thinking
                          
i could pull us away even just for a day

chorus

Break:

she grows impatient to change my tune

she's getting older and legal soon
                          
and i wasn't ready to start out and go upsetting
      
some girl that i'd be forgetting 
                                       
by the time the cops came by that afternoon
                           
and i try to decide as she pulls me aside
