Let's take the boat out on the bay

Forget your job for just one day

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



It might be inappropriate because

Either way our band gets dropped, oh yeah

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



But I'd play with fire to break the ice

And I'd play with a nuclear device

Is it something I'll regret?

Why do I want what I can't get?

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



The three-date theory is getting old

Everyone is getting left out in the cold

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



So I'll see you with another guy

Who pretends not to hear you when you cry, oh yeah

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



But I'd play with fire to break the ice

And I'd play with a nuclear device

Is it something I'll regret?

Why do I want what I can't get?

I wish it didn't have to be so bad



I'll be moving on, moving on

Moving on, and on and on

Moving on, moving on

Moving on and on and on



But I'd play with fire to break the ice

And I'd play with a nuclear device

Is it something I'll regret?

Why do I want what I can't get?

I wish it didn't have to be so bad

I wish it didn't have to be so bad

I wish it didn't have to be so bad

I wish it didn't have to be so bad
