State of Emergency lyrics

She's seductive;
she does it well.
She'll charge you by the hour
for a straight trip down to Hell

She'll direct you;
you think you know.
She's gonna let you go…
she's gonna let you go.

I'm not a lover,
but I'm still concerned.
The way you judge the fire
means your heart could still get burned
Then she'll want you
that I know.
She's gonna let me go…
gonna let me go.

See all those familiar faces
crowded in my mind…
I know that now is not the time.
Run around with someone else
satisfy yourself, but don't fool me.
Don'tcha let it be
a state of emergency.

I pledge allegiance
to the cause.
She'll tell you that she's leaving
if you don't put your life on pause.
She'll surprise you;
make ya think you know…
She's gonna let you go…

See all those familiar faces
crowded in my mind…
I know that now is not the time.
Run around with someone else
satisfy yourself, but don't fool me.
Don'tcha let it be
a state of emergency.

I know it's hard when love's unfair…
but that doesn't mean you shouldn't care
Show me the way to reach your heart.
Where do I start?

See all those familiar faces
crowded in my mind…
I know that now is not the time.
Run around with someone else
satisfy yourself, but don't fool me.
Don'tcha let it be…
don'tcha let it be…
a state of emergency.
