You Owe Me An Iou Lyrics

He was in the habit of taking things for granted, granted there wasn't much for him to take
And the only thing constant was the constant reminder he'd never change
Tight fisted with his compliments it didn't seem to bother him
That talk is even cheaper told in bulk
And the only thing constant was the constant reminder he'd never change
And so she yelled at him:

You owe me an iou,
Owe me an iou,
You owe me an iou,
Don't think that I'll forget,
You owe me an iou,
Owe me an iou,
You owe me an iou,
Don't think that I'll forget,
I know what I should get this time

She was in the habit of re-applying make up, make up
Eaten up by crocodile tears
And the only thing constant was the constant reminder she'd never change
Openly individual, covertly traditional, she couldn't seem to make up her mind
And the only thing constant was the constant reminder she'd never change
And so he yelled at her:

You owe me an iou,
Owe me an iou,
You owe me an iou,
Don't think that I'll forget,
You owe me an iou,
Owe me an iou,
You owe me an iou,
Don't think that I'll forget,
I know what I should get this time

Oh, is it real?
I do not know
But I'll act as if it is
What's the deal?
I do not know
But I'll act as if it
Heres what I think,
That it is, if it is,
Then this might just work

They were in the habit of taking things for granted granted
They never quite knew what they had
And the only thing constant was the constant reminder they'd never change,
And So they yelled out loud:

You owe me an iou,
Owe me an iou,
You owe me an iou,
Don't think that I'll forget,
You owe me an iou,
Owe me an iou,
You owe me an iou,
Don't think that I'll forget,
I know what I should get yeah I know what I should get this time.
