it's amanda
she spins her magic around his magic wand
that her hands touch
he's got emeralds for eyes that even hypnotize
oh why
amanda's boy
what he do to me
why won't
what he do to her
he do to me
(overlapping)
you know i need amanda's boy
why can't i leave him alone
i don't know why she won't leave me alone
why i can't win
tell me why
