Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You wanted a hit
But maybe we don't do hits
I try and try, it ends up feelin' kind of wrong
You wanted it tough
But is it ever tough enough?
No, nothing's ever tough enough
Until we hit the road
[Verse 2]
And you wanted it lush
But, honestly, you must hush
No, honestly, you know too much
So leave us, leave us on our own
[Verse 3]
You wanted a hit
Well this is how we do hits
You wanted a hit
But that's not what we do
Sugar
[Verse 4]
You wanted it real
But can you tell me what's real?
We've got lights and sounds and stories
Music's just a part
[Verse 5]
Then you wanted the truth
And then you said you want proof
I guess you're used to liars
Saying what they want
[Verse 6]
Still, we won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies till you take us home
And we won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies anymore
We can't be your babies till you take us home
Lover
[Verse 7]
You wanted it smart
But, honestly, I'm not smart
No, honestly, you're never smart
We fake it, fake it all the time
[Verse 8]
Then you wanted the time
But maybe I can't do time
We both know that's an awful line
But this doesn't make it wrong
[Verse 9]
You wanted it right
No out of mind and out of sight
No filthy bus and early flight
No seven days and forty nights
[Verse 10]
You wanted a hit
Please tell me where's the point in it?
You wanted a hit
But that's not what we do
[Verse 11]
Still, we won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies till you take us home
And we won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies anymore
We can't be your babies till you take us home
[Verse 12]
And we won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies till you take us home
And we won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies anymore
We won't be your babies till you take us home
Sugar
