We played tag in grade school,
You wanted to be it.
But chasin' boys was just a fad,
You crossed your heart, you'd quit.
When we grew up you traded,
Your promise for my ring.
Now just like back in grade school,
You're doing the same old thing.
You'd better stop,
The love you save maybe your own.
Darlin' take it slowly,
Or some day you'll be all alone.
You better stop,
The love you save maybe your own,
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me,
You're heading for a danger zone.
I'm the one who loves you,
I'm the one you need.
Those other guys will put you down,
As soon as they succeed.
They'll ruin your reputation,
They'll label you a flirt.
The way they talk about you,
They'll turn your name to dirt, oh.
Isaac said he kissed you beneath the apple tree,
When Benji held your hand he felt electricity.
When Alexander called you he said he rang your chimes,
Christopher discovered you're away ahead of your time.
You'd better stop,
The love you save maybe your own.
Darlin' take it slow,
Or some day you'll be all alone.
You better stop,
The love you save maybe your own.
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me,
You're headed for a danger zone.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
"S" is for save it,
"T" is for take it slow,
"O" is for oh, no,
"P" is for please, please don't go.
You'd better stop,
The love you save maybe your own.
Darlin' take it slow,
Or some day you'll be all alone.
You better stop,
The love you save maybe your own.
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me,
You're headed for a danger zone.
You'd better stop stop stop,
You'd better stop stop stop!
