I'm gonna get it together
 I'm telling you girl
 I'm gonna make it all better

 But I don't know how I'm going to
 'Cause I don't know what she is going through
 What I know is that's even mean for me
 'Cause she means what she says and she says what she means

 What is the word
 It's like you don't even know me
 Haven't you heard
 This sort of thing is below me

 But I don't know what I would stoop to
 Have you got another jump I could hoop through
 Now, I don't know if that's even meant for me
 'Cause she means what she says and she says what she means

 When she says that I'm mean, does she mean what she says?

 And she says what she means, and she means what she says
 And she says what she means, and she means what she says

 Maybe I don't stay in touch much
 'Cause it makes me feel I'm goin' Dutch
 Oooo...
 Maybe I'm the sort who's sordid
 Yeah, but I won't be extorted
 Oooo...

 Whenever you want me, whenever you need me
 I know that you're angry, you know that I'm sorry
 Well this situation has come back to haunt me
 Whenever you need me, whenever you want me
 Whenever you want me, whenever you need me
 Whenever you want me, whenever you need me
 Whenever you want me
