Thought you almost fooled me
You said you wanna settle down
My mama never liked you
'Cause she heard that you get around
But your face told a different story
And I made one up in my head for you
My mama never liked you
'Cause she knows that you've been around
It was like one, two, three
And I'm caught in the middle
In so deep, suddenly it's sinful
Every line I draw, you override
'Cause you're, you're such a hypocrite, oh
Pretty good at what you don't show
And you never let your folks know
You've been climbing out the window
And you tell me that I'm insane
But you treat all of your friends that way
You're getting older, and it's getting late
You're just like everybody else in LA
♪
I know it's pretty tough
Your reputation doesn't commend much
But they'll give you the limelight
And you'll shine no matter the fine lines
'Cause the weight of your world is empty
And you're the one who makes it heavy to carry
You never finish what you're starting
I guess I'm just another one
It was like one, two, three
And I'm caught in the middle
In so deep, suddenly it's sinful
Every line I draw, you override (override)
'Cause you're, you're such a hypocrite, oh
Pretty good at what you don't show
And you never let your folks know
You've been climbing out the window
And you tell me that I'm insane
But you treat all of your friends that way
You're getting older, and it's getting late
You're just like everybody else in LA (everybody else in LA, ooh)
You know how to fake it on a Sunday night
Turn me into something I don't recognize
They probably think I'm fine
It was like one, two, three
And I'm caught in the middle
In so deep, suddenly it's sinful
Every line I draw, you override (override)
'Cause you're, you're such a hypocrite, oh
Pretty good at what you don't show
And you never let your folks know
You've been climbing out the window
And you tell me that I'm insane (insane)
But you treat all of your friends that way
You're getting older, and it's getting late
You're just like everybody else in LA
