[Chorus]
Why you screaming?
You know I'm not a man of war
Break the gold chain that I gave you
Throw it down on the floor
Instead of this seven page letter
I wish I had peace of mind
My friends tell me, "You should go get her"
But loving you, loving you, loving you
Is a waste of time

[Ad lib]
Oh yes it is, a waste of time, ooh

[Verse 1]
I need to get out of this city
I need to get you out of my head
I need to get away from the words that you said to me
Oh baby
(Why you screaming? You know I'm not a man of war)
How could you think that I could put something
Inside of someone that I put inside you, inside you?
Even if I tried to, if I tried to
I couldn't 'cause I still smell like the last time that we...
I...
But lovin' you, lovin' you, lovin' you is a waste of time
(Waste of time) Oh yes it is
Lovin' you's a waste of time, baby, ooh
