Lyrics
I just can't be seen with you
I admit it anyway

I just get obscene with you
I don't stand a chance with you
I never did anyway

I can't even sleep with you
I'd always be awake
I just can't be seen with you
It's for your own sake
You're better off anyway
It's too dangerous baby
It's too dangerous
It's too dangerous
I just can't be seen with you

They set us up so they can shoot us down
Put us six feet underground
It's just too deep for me baby

I just can't be seen with you
Although it hurts me to say
Yeah it was just a dream with you
Yeah because you're married anyway

Oh shit

Babe I don't stand a chance with you
Oh you're better off this way
It's hit and run away
It's just too dangerous baby

I just can't be, yes I got to chill this thing with you
I just can't be
It's just too dangerous baby
Baby, it's just too much for me
I just can't be
I just can't be seen nowhere around you baby
I just can't be
It's too dangerous--it's just too dangerous baby
Even in the dark
I just can't be
Yeah I got to chill with you
I just can't be
