You're no good for me

Can we hit it now low down and gritty
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
Baby put on heart-shaped sunglasses
Cause we're gonna take a ride
I'm not gonna listen to what the past says

Take another drag turn me to ashes
Ready for another lie

Baby, you're no good for me
You're no good for me
But, baby, I want you
I want you, I want you
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Never was there ever a girl so pretty
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Can we hit it now, low down and gritty?
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
(You're no good for me)
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
(Baby, you're no good for me)

(But, baby, I want you, I want)
Do you think we'll be in love?
(You're no good for me)
Baby's stopping at Seven-Eleven
(Baby, you're no good for me)
There in his white Pontiac heaven
(You're no good for me)
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
(But, baby, I want you, I want)
Do you think we'll be in love?
(You're no good for me)

Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Never was there ever a girl so pretty
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
Baby, put on heart-shaped sunglasses
'Cause we gonna take a ride
I'm not gonna listen to what the past says
I've been waiting up all night
Take another drag, turn me to ashes
Ready for another lie?
Says he's gonna teach me just what fast is
Say it's gonna be all right
Hit me, my darling, tonight
I don't know why, but I like it
Gotta get back to the wild
Give it up, give it up
Live it up, live it up
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Never was there ever a girl so pretty
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Can we hit it now, low down and gritty?
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
Let's take Jesus off the dashboard
Got enough on his mind
We both know just what we're here for
Saved too many times
Maybe I like this roller coaster
Maybe it keeps me high
Maybe, the speed, it brings me closer
I could sparkle up your eye
Hit me and tell me you're mine
I don't know why, but I like it
Scary? My God, you're divine
Gimme them, gimme them
Dope and diamonds
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Never was there ever a girl so pretty
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
Can we hit it now, low down and gritty?
Do you think we'll be in love forever?
Do you think we'll be in love?
You're no good for me
Baby, you're no good for me
You're no good for me
But, baby, I want you, I want you
You're no good for me
Baby, you're no good for me
You're no good for me
But, baby, I want you
I want you, I want you
Diet mountain dew, baby, New York City
