The Young Professionals Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name

Open up a beer
And you say get over here
And play a video game
I'm in his favorite sundress
Watching me get undressed
Take that body downtown, Honey

I say you the bestest
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on

Go play a video game
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do

I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on Earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do

I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two

Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

Singing in an old bars
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame

Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games

He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of

Watching all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul's
This is my idea of fun
Playing video games

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on Earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do

I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

(Now you do)

It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on Earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two




Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do
