That’s the way I like it
That’s the way I want it
That’s the way I like it
And that’s the way I want it

I’m a dumb ass
I go too fast
When I shouldn’t be moving at all
I know I’m the last
And your only chance
At having something meaningful

I won’t ever be tricked into thinking that she loves me
Cause no one does and no one will
I won’t ever be tricked into thinking that she loves me
Cause no one does and no one will

And that’s the way I like it
And that’s the way I want it

I jump into things
Buying wedding rings
When I can’t keep myself in line
Try to stop myself
Put it on a shelf
And save it for another time

I won’t ever be tricked into thinking that they love me
Cause no one does and no one will
I won’t ever be tricked into thinking that they love me
Cause no one does and no one will

And that’s the way I like it
And that’s the way I want it
That’s the way I like it
And that’s the way I want it

Here I am again
Left to my own devices
This is the last time
Anyone can bring me down

I won’t ever be tricked into thinking that she loves me
Cause no ones does and no one will
I won’t ever be tricked into thinking that they love me
Cause no one does and no one will

And that’s the way I like it
And that’s the way I want it
And that’s the way I like it
And that’s the way I want it
That’s the way I like it
That’s the way I want it
That’s the way I like it
That’s the way I want it
That’s the way I like it
