Dumb it Down

In the beginning there was a thought. My mind was bending it into the shape of a question mark.
Are your eyes really windows to your heart?
Are they just dancing around the room and looking out for your imaginary lover’s return
Or are they looking for somebody to burn?

Why don’t you dumb it down for me baby? Why don’t you dumb it down for me girl?
‘cause I can tell you now that baby, baby I want you.

(bridge)
And I want to see you and me alone at last
And I want to see you and me alone at last
And I want to see you and me getting somewhere fast. Make it last, make it last.

So if you’re playing a little trick well, you can laugh but babe I’m telling you to make it quick
‘cause what I have to say aint funny a bit.
No, no, no, no I’m not your flunky; I’m not your stooge
I’m not some frat boy who’s just looking for somebody to do
And I don’t have a single thing to prove.

I’m gonna dumb it down for you baby? I’m gonna dumb it down for you girl?
‘cause it’s as simple as baby, baby I want you.

And I want to see you…. ~solo~
You eyes are dancing around the room. They’re looking out for your imaginary lover’s return
Well he aint coming and it’s my turn… you know that’s true.


Why don’t you dumb it down for me baby? Why don’t you dumb it down for me girl?
‘cause I can tell you now that baby, baby I want you.

Why don’t you dumb it down for me baby? Why don’t you dumb it down for me girl?
‘cause I can tell you now that baby, baby I want you.

…and I want to see you…
