State of Emergency

She's seductive, but she does it well

She'll charge you by the hour

For a straight trip down to hell

She'll correct you, when you think you know

She's gonna let me go, she's gonna let me go

I'm not a lover, but I'm still concerned

That when you touch the fire

That your heart could still be burned

I should warn you that I know

She's gonna let me go, she's gonna let me go

See all those familiar faces

Crowded in my mind

I know that now is not the time

Run around with someone else

Satisfy yourself but don't fool me

Don'tcha let it be a state of emergency

Pledge allegiance to the cause

She'll tell you that she's leaving

If you don't put your life on pause

She'll surprise you, when you think you know

She's gonna let you go, she's gonna let you go

See all these familiar faces

Crowded in my mind

I know that now is not the time

Run around with someone else

Satisfy yourself but don't fool me

Don'tcha let it be a state of emergency

I know it's hard when life's unfair

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't care

Show me the way to reach your heart

Where do I start

See all these familiar faces

Crowded in my mind

I know that now is not the time

Run around with someone else

Satisfy yourself but don't fool me

Don'tcha let it be a state of emergency
