You're not on my things to do,
 cos I've already done you.
 And I am protective, it's so cute,
 but only when it suits you.
 Is this all in vein?
 Can these words explain

 Desperate minds mean desperate measures
 You've got to get this one together
 You're young and in love
 That should be enough.

 At least you'll have nice thoughts of me,
 when I am cheating on you
 In your dreams.
 I've told you before my closet's clean,
 and that these bones dont belong to me.
 Try this one for size,
 try me one more time.
 You hold me down
 by keeping me around.

 Desperate minds mean desperate measures
 You've got to get this one together
 You're young and in love
 That should be enough.
 Desperate minds mean desperate measures
 You've got to get this one together
 You're young and in love
 That should be enough.

 You hold me down,
 by keeping me around.
 And no one takes me home.
 (no one takes me home.
 You hold me down,
 by keeping me around.
 And no one takes me home.
 (no one takes me home.

 Desperate minds mean desperate measures
 You've got to get this one together
 You're young and in love
 That should be enough.

 (Young and in love, that should be enough.)
