Lyrics

The window's open, and you're draped across the windowsill
Those innocent eyes, and the little girl who's so wise, are with you still
You're dressed to wound, and soon enough you'll move in for the kill
'Cause nothing, no nothing equals that particular thrill
You let a little shiver run down your spine
As roving eyes are making beelines for your hemline
You're worried about your eyeliner? I'm worried about the grapevine
What if he wonders what you do with your spare time?
It's this addiction, you know it is
You think it's harmless, 'cause it's not harming you
It's some addiction, it's stranger than fiction
You're laughing at me now, but I know it holds the clue to you
I know you think you'll keep your cool
But I can't imagine who you think you're fooling
Lining up opponents for your favorite kind of duel
You say you know that it's a game, but you forget that it's got rules
It's this addiction, you know it is
You say you'd never really be untrue -- would you?
It's some addiction, it's stranger than fiction
And it's laughing at you now, but you still don't catch the clue, do you?
He's sharper than you know, you know you're gonna hit that snag
He's tired of playing games, you know, tired of playing the same old rag
The parties that you drag him to, where he knows he's just a sight gag
Call me a nag, but it's a matter of time
It's this addiction
It's this addiction
It's this addiction
It's this addiction
You know it is
