lyrics

You always act so loving, so loving and so sincere
And I wanna believe you, believe in your good cheer
But I’ve begun to doubt you
Doubt that you’re for real
Are you really a phony and your words just a spiel
'Cause I ain't buying, no

I hear you say you love me, I hear you say you care
But you don't touch me, touch me anywhere
I hear you say you want me
I hear you say it again and again
But you don't touch me, touch me my old friend

You always want to hug me, squeeze me oh so hard
Don’t you ever wonder why I put up my guard
You talk like a salesman, like you’re selling me on you
I go on the defensive
When things don’t ring quite true
Hold it right there partner

Your love has gotta be earned
It’s gotta be real, gotta be real

Can’t tell if you’re straight or gay
Don’t know what you’re after
When you get that funny look in your eyes
I suppress my laughter
I know you think you mean it and you wanna seem deep
But most of the time you come across
Like some sort of creep
Get real, my bro
