Ben Folds - Protection lyrics

[Ben Folds - Protection lyrics]

Tourists wear their wallets in
High places when abroad
So as not to be ripped off in
Ways to which they're not apprised
Lawyers write some goofy terms in
Letters to the future so as not to get all
Screwed by methods hereinafter devised
So will I

And I guess I will protect myself from you
Sometimes, I get so tickled I can't talk
But, I will protect myself from you
I'll keep on reminding me I'm
Always free to walk

You're not exactly what I'm looking for
You don't even know that but
I've got it straight, i'm keeping it in mind
No you're not what I was looking for
I just need a little bit of
What you've got a little bit
Don't make me laugh

And I guess I will protect myself from you
Sometimes, I get so tickled I can't talk
But, I will protect myself from you
And I'll keep on reminding me
I'm always free to walk

Always free free to walk, hey
Whatever happens between you and me
Today probably will be okay
But won't bother me anyway

And I guess I will protect myself from you
Sometimes, I get so tickled I can't talk
But, I will protect myself from you
And I'll keep on reminding me
I'm always free to walk free: F-R-E-E

You can't, you can't hurt me 'cause I
Don't care about you
No, I don't give a shit, I
Don't give a shit about you, woah

The pussy-ass sounds of white
People playing jazz
