I'm Okay
Ro Danishei Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And what you want me to say
I gotta think about it
Do I really wanna be your baby?
I find it hard to recognize
How you play
Don't think I know this game
I'm much more used to the other way
I feel you watchin' me
I know you wanna eat
Come into mama's kitchen
I'll fix you up a treat
But you say "no way,
I really don't want cake
I'm here to take your heart
I'm here to take your heart
You're here to take my heart?
You're here to take my heart!?
No, I'm okay kay kay kay kay
I'm gonna be okay kay kay kay kay
Don't need to be be be be be
Nobody's baby bay bay baby
No thank you, I'm okay
If you wanna date
I'll say it's great for a day
I suffer from attention deficit
Did I mention?
Don't wanna ring on it
Just put a thing on it
Just put a thing on it, Just
Just put a thing on it
I feel you watchin' me
I know you wanna eat
Come into mama's kitchen
I'll fix you up a treat
But you say "no way,
I really don't want cake
I'm here to take your heart
I'm here to take your heart
You're here to take my heart?
You're here to take my heart!?
No, I'm okay kay kay kay kay
I'm gonna be okay kay kay kay kay
Don't need to be be be be be
Nobody's baby bay bay baby
No thank you, I'm okay
I never wanted your love
I only wanted your O
But you're hooked on me like a drug
When I say enough, is enough, it's enough
I'm here to take your heart
I'm here to take your heart
You're here to take my heart
You're here to take my heart
No, I'm okay kay kay kay kay
I'm gonna be okay kay kay kay kay
Don't need to be be be be be
Nobody's baby bay bay baby
No thank you, I'm okay kay kay kay kay
I'm gonna be okay kay kay kay kay
Don't need to be be be be be
Nobody's baby bay bay baby
No thank you, I'm okay
