Puttin' my defences up If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack Never put my love out on the line Never said yes to the right guy Never had trouble getting what I want But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough When I don't care I can play 'em like a Ken doll Won't wash my hair Then make 'em bounce like a basketball But you make me wanna act like a girl Paint my nails and wear high heels Yes, you, make me so nervous That I just can't hold your hand You make me glow, but I cover up Won't let it show, so I'm Puttin' my defences up If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack Never break a sweat for the other guys When you come around, I get paralyzed And every time I try to be myself It comes out wrong like a cry for help It's just not fair Brings more trouble than love is worth I gasp for air It feels so good, but you know it hurts But you make me wanna act like a girl Paint my nails and wear perfume For you, make me so nervous That I just can't hold your hand You make me glow, but I cover up Won't let it show, so I'm Puttin' my defences up Cause I don't wanna fall in love If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack The feelings are lost in my lungs They're burning, I'd rather be numb And there's no one else to blame So instead I'll take off in a run I'm flying too close to the sun And I'll burst into flames You make me glow, but I cover up You make me glow, but I cover up Puttin' my defences up Cause I don't wanna fall in love If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack I think I'd have a heart attack
