EYou want a guy that's sweet

BWithout being attracted to any of them
EA good boy, a bad boy, a good bad boy

ALoves your brother sensitive but not weak and
BIs a great lover calls your mother on the weekend
EThen you might think thaAt this guy only exists in your mC#mind
Well guess what

EIf you want love
C#mLower your expectations a few
ACause Prince Charming would never settleB for you
EIf you want love

AAnd if he's got a thing for feet
BSay fuck it, sweep me off them
