Let's take the boat out on the bay

Forget your job for just one day

I wish it didn't have to be so bad

It might be inappropriate, because

Either way, our band gets dropped, oh yeah

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



But i'd play with fire to break the ice

And i'd play with a nuclear device

Is it something i'll regret

Why do i want what i can't get

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



The 3 date theory's getting old

Everyone's getting left out in the cold

I wish it didn't have to be so bad

So i'll see you with another guy

Who pretends not to hear you when you cry, oh yeah

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



But i'd play with fire to break the ice

And i'd play with a nuclear device

Is it something i'll regret

Why do i want what i can't get

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



I'll be moving on, moving on, moving on and on

Moving on, moving on, moving on and on and on



But i'd play with fire to break the ice

And i'd play with a nuclear device

Is it something i'll regret

Why do i want what i can't get

I wish it didn't have to be so bad
