You Owe Me an IOU

He was in the habit of taking things for granted

Granted, there wasn't much for him to take

And the only thing constant was the constant reminder he'd never change

Tight fisted with his compliments, it didn't seem to bother him

That talk is even cheaper told in bulk

And the only thing constant was the constant reminder he'd never change

And so she yelled at him

You owe me an IOU, owe me an IOU

You owe me an IOU

Don't think that I'll forget

You owe me an IOU, owe me an IOU

You owe me an IOU

Don't think that I'll forget

I know what I should get this time

She was in the habit of reapplying makeup

Makeup eaten up by crocodile tears

And the only thing constant was the constant reminder she'd never change

Overtly individual, covertly traditional

She couldn't seem to make up her mind

And the only thing constant was the constant reminder she'd never change

And so he yelled at her

You owe me an IOU, owe me an IOU

You owe me an IOU

Don't think that I'll forget

You owe me an IOU, owe me an IOU

You owe me an IOU

Don't think that I'll forget

I know what I should get this time

Oh, Is it real? I don't know

But, I'll act as if it is

What's our deal? I don't know

But, I'll act as if it is what I think that it is

If it is, then this might just work

They were in the habit of taking things for granted

Granted, they never quite knew what they had

And the only thing constant was the constant reminder they'd never change

And so they yelled out loud

You owe me an IOU, owe me an IOU

You owe me an IOU

Don't think that I'll forget

You owe me an IOU, owe me an IOU

You owe me an IOU

Don't think that I'll forget

I know what I should get

Yeah I know what I should get this time
