lyrics

Uh-oh uh-oh (x6)

The thing about you is
You’re a mess
You think you understand me?
I’ll make you undress

And the thing about you is
No one would believe
Somebody who is younger
Somebody so naive

The thing about you is
Everything you say
Is part of my agenda
To make the world gay

And the thing about you is
You don’t have a voice
So let me say it for ya

I can see you standing there
Waiting for somebody else to blow
I’m at the top of my game now
Baby, you know
That the truth of it all isn’t what we see
Loneliness comes with disease
I wanna be there
When nobody’s waiting for me

That Joe Payne
Will be no good to ya
He’s a Payne by name
And a pain by nature
Ooh-woah-oh
That Joe Payne
Is gonna ruin your life
Cos he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?

The thing about you is
You can’t do this alone
You need me more than water
I taught you everything you know

And the thing about me is
I’m the one and only boss
So you’d better suck it up now

I can see you standing there
Waiting for somebody else to blow
I’m at the top of my game now
Baby, you know
That the truth of it all isn’t what we see
Loneliness comes with disease
I wanna be there
When nobody’s waiting for me
For me

That Joe Payne
Will be no good to ya
He’s a Payne by name
And a pain by nature
Ooh-woah-oh
That Joe Payne
Is gonna ruin your life
Cos he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?

That Joe Payne
Is a real bad loser
He’s a Payne by name
And he’ll only use ya
Ooh-woah-oh
That Joe Payne
Is a thief in the night
And he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?
Give him four on the floor
He’ll be dancing all night
Alright

So if you wanna get it
Say it: “heaven help me”
Feels like I might fall
Cos I’m about to break it down
Don’t frown or curse
Just watch me scale that wall
And be ready to take it
In the back and forth
We’ll fight it out some more
Gimme uh-oh when you run
Gimme uh-oh when you win
Gimme uh-oh if you’re done
Just gimme some

Uh-oh uh-oh (x5)

That Joe Payne will be no good to ya
That Joe Payne gonna ruin your life
That Joe Payne is a real bad loser
That Joe Payne’ll keep you up all night
That Joe Payne only wants to use ya
That Joe Payne will bite
And he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?

That Joe Payne
I’ll be no good to ya
He’s a Payne by name
And a pain by nature
Ooh-woah-oh
That Joe Payne
I’m gonna ruin your life
Cos he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?
Alright

That Joe Payne
I’m no good
I’m no good
I’m no good
He’s a Payne by name
I’m a pain by nature
But I’d change if I could
Ooh-woah-oh
That Joe Payne
I’m gonna ruin your life
Cos he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?

Yes, he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?
Give him four on the floor
He’ll be dancing all night
When the beat kicks in
Hope you’re holding on tight
Cos he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?
Alright

One, two, three
Wait
I wanna dance in seven-eight

Cos he’s a Payne
By name, by nature
Alright?

That Joe Payne (x8)
