Everybody told me Gem stuff's dangerous
I guess I didn't believe it until now
Dad always seemed apprehensive
And now he's really freaking out

What do I do?
I don't want that for you

Everybody tells me life is precious 
On the planet Earth
And that means you
And I have to protect you

What if somehow you get hurt
What do I do?
I don't want that for you...

Oooh... (x4)

What am I going to tell you?
You're better off not knowing the trouble I'm in,
I don't want you to worry about what I've just seen,
About where I've just been

You don't have to be a part of this
I don't think I want you to be
You don't need this
You don't need me

Oooh... (x8)
