Every time I try to tell you just what's on my mind
You try and calm me down but this thing's got to come out
In the open some time, yeah, you've been seeing
Somebody else behind my back, it don't seem fair

I'm the one who ends up looking like trash
Straight talk, I'm seriously thinking that your brain is in revers
Don't try and change my track, I'm gonna spell out something
Remember where you heard it first, yeah

You had my respect, I believed I had your, respect back
But that's all changed, now I find you really silly
Straight talking, you get these weird ideas
Let's get your image clear, you're not bad

But you're no, no Romeo, you know that, no Romeo
You know that, you know that, you know that
Every time I try to tell you, every time I try to tell you

Got to come out in the open sometime
You get these weird ideas
Let's get your image clear, you're not bad

But you're no, no Romeo, you know that, no Romeo
You know that, you know that, you know that
Every time I try to tell you, every time I try to tell you

Got to come out in the open sometime, you've been seeing
Somebody else behind my back and it don't seem fair

I'm the one who ends up, looking like trash, had my respect
I believed I had your respect back but that's all changed
I just find you really silly, straight talk
