Putting my defenses up, Cause I don't wanna fall in love, If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack.
Never put my love out on the line, Never said yes to the right guy, Never had trouble getting what I want, But when it comes to you I'm never good enough.
When I don't care, I can play 'em like a Ken doll, Won't wash my hair, Then make 'em bounce like a basket ball.
But you make me wanna act like a girl, Paint my nails and wear high heels, Yes, you make so nervous That I just can't hold your hand.
You make me glow, But I cover up, Won't let it show.
So I'm putting my defenses up, Cause I don't wanna fall in love, If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack.
Never break a sweat for the other guys. When you come around, I get paralyzed. And every time I try to be myself, It comes out wrong like a cry for help.
It's just not fair, Pain's more trouble than love is worth, I gasp for air, It feels so good, but you know it hurts.
But you make me wanna act like a girl, Paint my nails and wear perfume, For you, make me so nervous That I just can't hold your hand.
You make me glow But I cover up, Won't let it show.
So I'm putting my defenses up, Cause I don't wanna fall in love, If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack.
The feelings got lost in my lungs, They're burning, I'd rather be numb, And there's no one else to blame So scared I take off and I run, I'm flying too close to the sun And I burst into flames.
You make me glow, But I cover up, Won't let it show.
So I'm putting my defenses up, Cause I don't wanna fall in love, If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack, I think I'd have a heart attack.
