  • I kn-kn-know a girl
    She gets what she wants all the time
    'Cause she's fine
    But for an angel, she's a hot, hot mess
    Make you so blind
    But you don't mind

    'Cause she's an uptown, get-around, anything-goes girl, girl
    She's a hardcore, candy-store, give-me-some-more girl, girl

    She'll make you take her to the club, but then she leaves with her friends
    She likes to stay late at the party 'cause the fun never ends
    And all her clothes are on the floor and all your records are scratched
    She's like a one-way ticket 'cause you can't come back

    Saying, yeah, you want her
    But she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?)
    Yeah, you want her
    But she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?)

    You kn-kn-know that if you don't shut your mouth
    She'll freak out
    You better get your shit together
    'Cause she's bringing you down now
    Yeah, boy, you better, you better

    'Cause she's an uptown, get-around, anything-goes girl, girl
    She's a hardcore, candy-store, give-me-some-more girl, girl

    She's got a wicked sense of humor, can't believe what she says
    She drinks Bacardi in the morning 'til it goes to her head
    And all you want is just to hold her, but she don't go for that
    She has a hard time coming when she can't hit back

    Saying, yeah, you want her
    But she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?)
    Yeah, you want her
    But she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?)

    Every now and then, she makes you just a little bit crazy (crazy)
    She'll turn the knife into your back and then she's calling you "baby"
    Crazy

    She'll make you take her to the club, but then she leaves with her friends
    She likes to stay late at the party 'cause the fun never ends
    And all her clothes are on the floor and all your records are scratched
    She's like a one-way ticket 'cause you can't come back

    Saying, yeah, you want her
    But she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?)
    Yeah, you want her
    But she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?)

    Yeah, and then I know how you want her (you want her)
    Yeah, and then I know how you want her (you want her)
    Yeah, then I know how you want her, but she's so mean
    (You'll never let her go, why don't you let her go?) Writer/s: Kyle Cook, Paul Doucette, Robert Thomas
