The Future Freaks Me Out Lyrics - Motion City Soundtrack

I'm on fire and now I think I'm ready to bust a move 

Check it out I'm rocking steady, go 

Betty won't stop listening to modern rock 

How she hates to be alone 

I try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake 

Ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine 

She says, "Hey I rock the Haro sport, I rock the cowgirl blues 

I rock too fast for love I'm footloose in my Velcro shoes 

What's up with Will and Grace? I don't get drum and bass 

The future freaks me out" 

I'm on fire and now I think I'm ready to bust a move 

Check it out I'm rocking steady to the beat in my head 

It goes oh, oh, oh, oh, I know that she's the only one 

I'd rather waste our time together, yeah, 'cause we can get down 

Betty can't quit carving question marks on my wrist 

How come we're so alone 

We waste away the days with nicotine and television samples 

From an era we hate to admit we embrace 

We fail to represent, we fail to be content 

We fail at everything we ever even try to attempt 

And so the story goes as only Betty knows 

It's time to take control 

I'm on fire and now I think I'm ready to bust a move 

Check it out I'm rocking steady to the beat in my head 

It goes oh, oh, oh, oh, I know that she's the only one 

I'd rather waste my time with her 

Betty, I need you, I miss you 

I'm so alone without you 

To call up on the weekends 

With my cellular phone 

Betty it's so hard to relate 

To the whole human race 

I don't know where to begin 

I don't know where to begin 

If we can both find a way 

To do the things that we say 

We might not sit in our rooms 

And drink our daydreams away 

Betty, I'm a dreamer 

I'm not a vicious schemer 

Oh Betty won't you, ah fuck it 

I'm on fire and now I think I'm ready to bust a move 

Check it out I'm rocking steady to the beat in my head 

It goes oh, oh, oh, oh, I know that she's the only one 

I'd rather waste our time together, yeah, 'cause we can get down
