Shadow of a Doubt (A Complex Kid) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There goes my baby
There goes my only one
I think she loves me
But she don't want to let on
[Chorus 1]
Yeah, she likes to keep me guessing
She's got me on the fence
With that little bit of mystery
She's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to figure out
Yeah, she always like to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
Oh!
[Verse 2]
Sometimes at night, I
Wait around 'til she gets out
She don't like working
She says she hates her boss
[Chorus 2]
But she's got me asking questions
She's got me on defense
With that little certain something
She's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to get around
Yeah, she always likes to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
[Bridge]
Just a shadow of a doubt
She seldom keeps me running
I'm trying to figure out
If she's leading up to something
Oh!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
And when she's dreaming
Sometimes she sings in French
But in the morning
She don't remember it
[Chorus 3]
But she's got me thinking about it
Yeah, she's got me on the edge
With that little bit of mystery
She's a complex kid
And she's always been so hard to live without
Yeah, she always like to leave me with a shadow of a doubt
[Outro]
Well, a shadow of a doubt
A shadow of a doubt
Century City Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I want to leave you
Sometimes I want to go
Right back where I came from
Back where I belong
But it never lasts for too long
Always goes away
Well, I still don't look for reasons
That's much too hard these days
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Why worry about the rain?
Why worry about the thunder?
Honey, Century City's got everything covered
[Verse 2]
Well, your mama gave you loving
Mama held you near
Baby, Mama can't do nothing
Honey, Mama just ain't here
And you can pretend all you want to
But that won't work no more
No, you can't run back to Daddy
Yeah, you tried that once before
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why worry about your father?
Why worry about your mother?
Honey, Century City's got everything covered
[Chorus]
We're going to live in (Century City)
Go ahead and give in (Century City)
Like modern men, modern girls
We're going to live in the modern world
Whoa!
[Guitar Solo]
Ahh!
[Chorus]
We're going to live in (Century City)
Go ahead and give in (Century City)
Like modern men, modern girls
We're going to live in the modern world
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I get discouraged
Sometimes I feel so down
Sometimes I get so worried
But I don't know what about
But it works out in the long run
Always goes away
And I've come now to accept it
As a reoccurring phase
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Don't worry 'bout the worrying
Don't worry 'bout the problem
Honey, Century City's got everything covered
[Outro]
We're going to live in (Century City)
We're going to live in (Century City)
We're going to live in (Century City)
We're going to live in (Century City)
Don’t Do Me Like That Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was talking with a friend of mine
Said a woman had hurt his pride
Told him that she loved him so, and
Turned around and let him go
Then he said, "You better watch your step
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size"
[Chorus]
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you, baby?
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Someday I might need you, baby
Don't do me like that
[Verse 2]
Listen, honey, can you see?
Baby, you would bury me
If you were in the public eye
Giving someone else a try
And you know you better watch your step
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size
[Chorus]
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you, baby?
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I need you, baby?
Don't do me like that
[Bridge]
'Cause somewhere deep down inside
Someone is saying
"Love doesn't last that long"
I got this feeling inside
Night and day
And now I can't take it no more
[Verse 2]
Listen, honey, can you see?
Baby, you would bury me
If you were in the public eye
Giving someone else a try
And you know you better watch your step
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size
[Chorus]
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
What if I love you, baby?
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
I just might need you, honey
Don't do me like that
Wait!
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Baby, baby, baby
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Baby, baby, baby
Oh, oh, oh!
