  • Every time I see your face I get all wet between my legs
    Every time you pass me by, I heave a sigh of pain

    Every time I see your face I think of things unpure, unchaste
    I want to fuck you like a dog
    I'll take you home and make you like it
    Everything you ever wanted
    Everything you ever thought of
    Is everything I'll do to you
    I'll fuck you and your minions, too
    Your face reminds me of a flower
    Kind of like you're underwater
    Hair's too long and in your eyes
    Your lips a perfect "suck me" size
    You act like you're fourteen years old
    Everything you say is so obnoxious, funny, true and mean

    I want to be your blow job queen
    You're probably shy and introspective
    That's not part of my objective
    I just want your fresh, young jimmy
    Jamming, slamming, ramming in me
    Every time I see your face I think of things unpure, unchaste

    I want to fuck you like a dog
    I'll take you home and make you like it
    Everything you ever wanted
    Everything you ever thought of
    Is everything I'll do to you
    I'll fuck you till your dick is blue

  • Jeff from Boston, MaThis song is a satire of society's view of girls as sweet and innocent. The music is intended to be reminiscent of a children's song while the lyrics represent a decidedly adult libido. I imagine this as what is running through her head as she is gazing at the guy she likes, but saying nothing - outwardly conforming to the stereotype of the "good girl" but inwardly expressing her passionate sexual desire.
  • Mike from Matawan, NjI think she needs to set her standards lower. She'll NEVER get a guy if she acts like that!!!!!
  • Theresa from Murfreesboro, TnDirty song from a talented woman. I totally dig it!
  • Jessie from Dallas, TxVery weird song, I have to say. Why Can't I is probably my favorite song by Liz Phair.
  • Calum from Edinburgh, ScotlandRemind me. What are the lyrics?
