lyrics
I can't see through the curtains in your room
I can't see through the curtains in your room
What's so great about the world outside?
What's so great about the world outside?
Many boys have had my problem
It's so easy to break a heart
I'm not your best example
I'm not even the important part
What's so great about the world outside?
What's so great about the world outside?
Quick and dirty
Cheap and flirty
I've been lost on your body before
Like your eyes are now lost on me
You can't see through the curtains in my room
You can't see through the curtains in my room
Quick and dirty
Cheap and flirty
I've been lost on your body before
Like your eyes are now lost on me
I can't see through the curtains in your room
What's so great about the world outside?
What's so great about the world outside?
Many boys have had my problem
It's so easy to break a heart
I'm not your best example
I'm not even the important part
What's so great about the world outside?
What's so great about the world outside?
Quick and dirty
Cheap and flirty
I've been lost on your body before
Like your eyes are now lost on me
You can't see through the curtains in my room
You can't see through the curtains in my room
Quick and dirty
Cheap and flirty
I've been lost on your body before
Like your eyes are now lost on me
