I've been trying, I've been trying
Don't think that she makes herself clear
Every little sound that's been floating around
Isn't something I really want to
Hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

Gotta a piece
Under the driver's seat
Can she reach slowly underneath
Pulling teeth to get her to sleep
But I only hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

And I ain't the one that she loves
I ain't the one that she loves
I ain't the sign
And I only hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

She's making a list of the things I should quit
And I think that she thinks she could do much better than me
But I disagree
And I only hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

Hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

Hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

I only hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

Hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear

Hear what I want to
Hear what I want to hear
