We've been dating for a week
And now you're asking me
If I love you I don't know what to say
Hey, why don't we hit the hay
I'll be your love slave
In the morning, pretend that we're okay

You're moving fast
Don't get attached
I think you're hot
But I love you not

When I'm with you
I don't want to hear
The words that don't mean
Anything to me
I don't love you
I will never say
Those words that don't mean
Anything to me

We are nothing but a fling
So don't expect a thing from me, girl
You're way too serious
Why don't you just build a bridge
So you'll get over it and me, girl
We're friends with benefits

Pathetic hopeless romantic
This is why you never get it
Single is the way for me
Come play with me

You're moving fast
Don't get attached
I love you bod
(Oh Johnny)

    General Comment:"i love your butt (oh baby)"

    is supposed to be

    "I love your bod (Oh Johnny)"
    Oh Johnny is referring to John Tran, the asian dude that sings on this song.
    His nickname is John "John E. Trash" Tran.

    It's a song about being friends with benefits.
    She wants a relationship, he most definitely does not.

    General Comment:This song makes me sad. I just think of all the lame guys out there who only want to get fucked and don't care about anyone or anything except themselves and their dicks.

    General Comment:I can strongly relate to this song..my current boyfriend was telling me he loved me after one week..and I couldnt reply..seriously, it started out as just a fling..I only wanted to have fun and not get too serious because of my fear of being hurt..but its already been a month and I can admitt that im in love with him- finally.

    General Comment:Er, I think they lyrics are supposed to say


    "I'll be your love slave, and in the morning
    Pretend that we're okay"


    At least, that's what makes sense to me..
