Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Tired, blue boy walks my way
Holding a girl's hand
The good are never easy, the easy never good
And love it never happens like you think it really should
Deception and perfection are wonderful traits
One will breed love
The other hate
You'll find me in the lonely hearts
Under 'I'm after a brand new start'
[Pre-chorus]
Someone told me, "Stay away from things that aren't yours."
But was he yours, if he wanted me so bad?
[Chorus]
They call me homewrecker, homewrecker
(Pacify her)
They call me homewrecker, homewrecker
(You don't love her)
Pacify her
(They call me homewrecker, homewrecker)
She's getting on my nerves
You don't love her
(I broke a million hearts just for fun)
Stop lying with those words
[Post-chorus 1]
I'm only happy when I'm on the run
I break a million hearts just for fun
I don't belong to anyone
[Verse 2]
I can't stand her whining
Where's her binky now?
We're all very lovely 'til we get to know each other
As we stop becoming friends and we start becoming lovers
[Pre-chorus]
Someone told me, "Stay away from things that aren't yours."
But was he yours, if he wanted me so bad?
[Chorus]
They call me homewrecker, homewrecker
(Pacify her)
They call me homewrecker, homewrecker
(You don't love her)
Pacify her
(They call me homewrecker, homewrecker)
She's getting on my nerves
You don't love her
(I broke a million hearts just for fun)
Stop lying with those words
[Bridge]
I guess you could say that my life's a mess
But I'm still looking pretty in this dress
I'm the image of deception
(Pacify her)
When everything is life and death
You may feel like there's nothing left
Instead of love and trust and laughter
(Pacify her)
What you get is happy never after
But deep down all you want is love
The pure kind we all dream of
(Pacify her)
But we cannot escape the past
So you and I will never last
Stop lying with those words
[Chorus]
They call me homewrecker, homewrecker
(Pacify her)
They call me homewrecker, homewrecker
(You don't love her)
Pacify her
(They call me homewrecker, homewrecker)
She's getting on my nerves
You don't love her
(I broke a million hearts just for fun)
Stop lying with those words
[Post-Chorus 2]
Pacify her
('Cause I'm a homewrecker, homewrecker)
You don't love her
(And I don't belong to anyone)
Stay away from things that aren't yours
