You are a work of art
And I'd lower value from the start
I've got to make a move
Or you're moving away

Look at me and maybe you'll see something more than just me
And make it better
I'm on my knees beggin' here for some kind of chance
Oh, come on, and make it better

You know this song's a cry for help
So, punish me, or privilege me with you

This is a compliment,
To the life that I see you live
I am willing to work
If only this could work out

You know this song's a cry for help
So, punish me, or privilege me with you (ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, yeah)
Punish me, or privilege me with you

Settle down, settle down
You're a little boy
What are you gonna do?
Don't you know I've got her heart on a string?
She belongs to me, not you

I can smell a rat coming from miles away
Oh, come on, I'll treat you better
Than the jokes in the bars,
With their coke and their cars
You are just too sweet for a scene that beat, girl
You're so much better

You know this song's a cry for help
So, punish me, or privilege me with you (ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, yeah)
Punish me, or privilege me with you

Let's go,
I want you for myself

Punish me, or privilege me with you (ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, yeah)
Punish me, or privilege me with you (whoa-oh-oh-ooh, yeah)
Punish me, or privilege me with you
