Lyrics

I buy you all the things you want
I take you out on the town
But when it's time for you to give
You only want to see what you can get
Respect the things I want
Respect the things I need
Or I am going to leave you
That's how it's got to be
Respect the way I am
And the way I want to be
Or I am going to leave you tonight
The other day you were with your friends
And I came up to join right in
But you kept talking about some guy
And I felt like I was going to die
Respect the things I want
Respect the things I need
Or I am going to leave you
That's how it's got to be
Respect the way I am
And the way I want to be
Or I am going to leave you tonight
I can only take so much before I change my mind
I've been more than good to you but now I want what's mine
You think you are in control because you've always been
Watch me as this clock counts down, I am going to win
Respect the things I want
Respect the things I need
Or I am going to leave you
That's how it's got to be
Respect the way I am
And the way I want to be
Or I am going to leave you tonight
Some guys try to drag you down
Thinking that you're gonna come around
But I know that never works
You just think that they are jerks, so come on
Respect the things I want
Respect the things I need
Or I am going to leave you
That's how it's got to be
Respect the way I am
And the way I want to be
Or I am going to leave you tonight
