lyrics

BILLIE

I know, I know what's happening.
No way this will work out for me.
So no, this won't be happening,
Even though she’s so sexy.


I know what I gotta do, I know what I gotta do.
I know what I gotta do, I know what I gotta do.


I've gotta stop, I gotta think.
Stay focused, use my head.
But then she turns me on, now I can't think.
Remember what she said.
She wants casual, that's not me,
I won't be a romantic casualty.
Gotta stop, I gotta think.
Go home now straight to bed.
And especially don't look into those eyes...

Oh shit...


ZARA

She really wants me, it's in her eyes
And I really want her too, I can't lie.
But I gotta stop this, what's it worth?
I’ll get a lay, but she'll just get hurt



I know what I gotta do, I know what I gotta do.
I know what I gotta do, I know what I gotta do.


I’ve gotta stop, I’ve gotta think
I know I shouldn't flirt
But then I get so hot, I can’t think
I can’t let her get burnt.
Sex ain't worth a broken heart,
so Imma end this before it starts.
I'm gonna stop, I’m gonna think.
She's much too sweet to hurt.
And I especially won't look right at her chest…

Fuck it.



BILLIE
No, no!
We gotta work together each day

ZARA
No, no!
Just Imagine what Cris will say?

BIILLIE / ZARA
No, No!
We'd be a terrible pair, it's unfair, coz she’s the hottest one here!


BILLIE
I know what I gotta do, I know what I gotta do.

ZARA
I know what I gotta do, I know what I gotta do.


ZARA [BILLIE]

I’ve gotta stop, I’ve gotta think.
[Don’t look into those eyes.]
I’ve gotta stop, I’ve gotta think.
[Don’t look into those eyes.]
I’ve gotta stop, I’ve gotta think.
[Don’t look into those eyes.]
I’ve gotta stop, I’ve gotta think.
[Don’t look into those eyes.]

I’ve gotta stop, I gotta think
[Don’t.]
Gotta stop, gotta think.
[Don’t.]
Stop, and think.
[Don’t stop.]
Stop, and think.
[Don’t stop.]

Don’t stop
[Don’t stop]
Don’t think
[Don’t think]
Don’t stop
[Don’t stop]
Don’t think
[Don’t think]
Don’t stop
[Don’t stop]
Don’t think
[Don’t think]
Don’t stop
[Don’t stop]
Don’t think
[Don’t think]


BILLIE
Now I can stop, now I can think
I just can’t fall for her

ZARA
Now that she's gone, I can think
Maybe in a different world

BILLIE
Sure, it could be fun, but the fact cannot be forgot
Even though she's incredible, she doesn't want what I want.

ZARA
What do I want?
