In Your Face
Britt Black Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But you won't even burn me
Cause I can take care of myself
So you can save your breath now
And try it out on someone else
Don't try and push me
Or invade my space
If you push me too far
I'll get in your face
You can't take no for an answer
A boy like you doesn't understand
What part of no has you confused
Do yourself a favor
Keep your hands to yourself
Or more than your ego will get bruised
I'm turning up the heat boy
I won't put up with it again
You took the low road
This is the end
