Hey babe, don't act so scared

All I want is some special care

I'm on the run from some institution

All I want's a little consolation

And I can tell by your face

I'm a total disgrace

Let me inside your place

Move over for a damage case

Hey babe, wait a minute, stop

Don't run away, don't call the cop

I ain't looking to victimize you

All I want to do is tantalize you

And I can tell by your state

I'm all over the place

Got no time for a damage case

Hey babe, don't turn away

I'm here tomorrow, I'm gone today

I don't care what you think your game is

I don't care even what your name is

You're all over this place

Move over for a damage case
