[Verse 1]

Short of breath

A glitter mess

We catch some quiet out on Church Street

She's my wings

Pulling all the strings

Soon he'll be dancing next to me


[Pre-Chorus 1]

But when she walks right in he forgets me all together

I watch him winning her over

And it starts to sting but not how I expected

With a shock I'm starting to sober


[Chorus]

I don't mean to scare ya

Don't wanna embarrass myself

I wasn't part of the plan

But now I think I need ya

And I wanna cut out the middle man


[Verse 2]

Another week

You're talking sweet

I gave my blessing out on Church Street

But pretty soon

His true colours bloom

Oh how history repeats


[Pre-Chorus 2]

When she walks right in, yеah, she tells me all about it

Keeps on scrеwing her over

And I'm listening but my minds a little clouded

While she rests her head on my shoulder


[Chorus]

I don't mean to scare ya

Don't wanna embarrass myself

I wasn't part of the plan

But now I think I need ya

And I wanna cut out the middle man


[Bridge]

Do I wanna be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you, kiss you

Be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you

Do I wanna be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you, kiss you

Be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you

Do I wanna be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you, kiss you

Be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you

Do I wanna be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you, kiss you

Be or befriend

Go boy crazy with you, kiss you


[Chorus]

Oh I don't mean to scare ya

Don't wanna embarrass myself

I wasn't part of the plan

But now I think I need ya

And I wanna cut out the middle man

I don't mean to scare ya

Don't wanna embarrass myself

I wasn't part of the plan

Baby I need ya

And I wanna cut out the middle man


[Outro]

Uh, the middle

Uh-uh, the middle man

The middle

Uh-uh, the middle man
