[Verse 1]
What are you girls going to tell your mother?
I don't want to hear another word about young lovers
Or hiding your boyfriend in the cupboard
She's been to see the doctor, so you hope that she recovers

[Pre-Chorus]
You act dumb
You say you're so numb
You say you don't come under his thumb

[Chorus]
Don't want to be a goody-goody
I don't want just anybody
No, I don't want anybody
Saying, "You belong to me, you belong to me."

[Verse 2]
Your eyes are absent, your mouth is silent
Pumping like a fire hydrant
The things you see are getting hard to swallow
You're easily led, but you're much too scared to follow

[Pre-Chorus]
You've been warned
You're going to get torn
No uniform is going to keep you warm
