Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Baby really hurt me, crying in the taxi

He don't wanna know me

Says he made the big mistake of dancing in my storm

Says it was poison

So I guess I'll go home

Into the arms of the girl that I love

The only love I haven't screwed up

She's so hard to please, but she's a forest fire

I do my best to meet her demands, play at romance

We slow dance in the living room

But all that a stranger would see

Is one girl swaying alone, stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

They say, "You're a little much for me

You're a liability

You're a little much for me"

So they pull back, make other plans

I understand, I'm a liability

Get you wild, make you leave

I'm a little much for e-a-na-na-na, everyone

[Verse 2]

The truth is I am a toy that people enjoy

Till all of the tricks don't work anymore

And then they are bored of me

I know that it's exciting, running through the night

But every perfect summer's eating me alive until you're gone

Better on my own

[Chorus]

They say, "You're a little much for me

You're a liability

You're a little much for me"

So they pull back, make other plans

I understand, I'm a liability

Get you wild, make you leave

I'm a little much for e-a-na-na-na, everyone

[Outro]

They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun

You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun
