I usually avoid any type of confrontation, conversation, moderation
Lips seal but my fingers are flying as the hours pass they grow more impatient
My phone is magnetic especially when I'm sauced up and I admit that I'm ashamed
But there's Melissa, Teresa, and Emily, what a toss up, but that's the best part of the game
And I'm merely a novice aspiring alcoholic drowning the day's pain in house, barley, and grain
Thinking of ways to convince one to join me in the company of low-life salt doing the same
So I start texting, I keep texting, I can't stop, it's my obsession
It's like fishing, my words are like lures, if they bout to be cool, if not call it a night
We can, more likely shouldn't, I know
And I've tried to be a good boy, but it's hard
I start texting, I keep texting, I can't stop, it's my obsession
Is love a temptation?
Too rough, too rude, too boisterous, well, I'll tell you what man, I had it once and it was fun but not enough
Tis torture and not mercy, heaven is where my phone lives
In my pocket, so cozy, oh what a joy replies give
It seems Melissa's babysitting and Teresa's working late but Emily's on her way to East 11th on the train
And that's when I remember Patty from West Philly, she said I'm in your area three minutes away
So I stop texting, no more texting
It's my obsession, it's like fishing, my words are like lures, if they bout to be cool, if not call it a night
We can, more likely shouldn't, I know
And I've tried to be a good boy, but it's hard
And we can, more likely shouldn't, I know
And I've tried to be a good boy, but it's hard
I start texting, I keep texting, I can't stop, it's my obsession
I know you think I'm reckless, move so fast
I think I love him so I told him about it in a text message
He wrote back, me too, I was just sitting here thinking about you
I know I wanna but I can't and I shouldn't
Try to put my phone down, damn, but I couldn't
Stayed on the phone with him all night long
Text message when I'm gone
We can, more likely shouldn't, I know
And I've tried to be a good boy, but it's hard
And we can, more likely shouldn't, I know
And I've tried to be a good boy, but it's hard
