Prince - Gotta Stop (Messin' About) Lyrics

Sittin' outside your door, about to break down
Fourth time this week, somebody's come around
Who's it gonna be tonight? Who's the lucky man?
Where you get the attitude, I'll never understand

Here he comes now, so happy that he came
Was it good boy? Thoughts on, of her aim
What goes on inside your head
That makes you want to take them all to bed?

Gotta stop, gotta, gotta stop, messin' about
You know you gotta stop, gotta, gotta stop, messin' about

When I call you on the phone, you act so unconcerned
I wanna, I wanna get you all alone, baby, to show you what I've learned
Why you won't give me the time of day? You won't give me some time
You won't give me anything, God, you think you're too fine

Can't you see? All I want is a little time
I've been playin' with my toy so much I'm gonna go blind
Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You gotta stop, gotta, gotta stop, messin' about

Gotta stop, gotta gotta stop, messin' about
You gotta stop, gotta, gotta stop, messin' about
You gotta stop, gotta, gotta stop, messin' about, you do it too much
You gotta stop, gotta, gotta stop, messin' about, stop
