lyrics

I'm like a kid in a candy store
Like a kid in a candy store
I'm like a kid in a candy store
But I got no change!

Cos' you're too good to be true
Aren't you?
You're too good to be true
Why don't you let me know?
You're too good to be true
Aren't you?
If I had any sense I'd walk away from you

I'm like a bird by the windowsill
Like a bird by the windowsill
I'm like a bird by the windowsill
Stuck in a cage!

Cos' you're too good to be true
Aren't you?
You're too good to be true
Why don't you let me know?
You're too good to be true
Aren't you?
If I had any sense I'd walk away from you

I'm going out of my sense
So sick and tired of all these fences
I just want what I want
I wanna have it too
Cos' what good is a piece of cake
When it's STUCK ON THAT GODDAMNED PLATE?

You're too good to be true
Aren't you?
You're too good to be true
Why don't you let me know?
You're too good to be true
Aren't you?
If I had any sense I'd walk away from you
