Lover Boy
Mika · The Boy Who Knew too Much [2009]
Caught up in the rough, caught up in the rush of life, staring at me
You think you're in love, boy
But you don't even know what love is
You think you're in love, girl
But honey let me show you where your heart is
Lover boy is just illusion to me
You could take any boy, I'd show you what you would feel
A pretty boy with a nasty trace
A funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Isn't it enough, isn't it enough just to sunny and dumb?
I'm too tired of hooking up, sick of breaking up
Oh, you fool you did it for fun
You think you're in love, girl
But you don't even know what love is
You think you're in love, boy
But honey let me show you where your heart is
Lover boy is just illusion to me
You could take any boy, I'd show you what you would feel
A pretty boy with a nasty trace
A funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Lover boy is just illusion to me
You could take any boy, I'd show you what you would feel
A pretty boy with a nasty trace
A funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Lover boy is just illusion to me
You could take any boy, I'd show you what you would feel
A pretty boy with a nasty trace
A funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary
