Lyrics for Attention

Hey! Now that you have my attention What are you gonna do? You might have good intention But they're not coming through You're very pleased with yourself I see It's like a walk in the park You weren't lying by anybody else 'Cause you can see in the dark Got a lock, got a key Got some kind of vice-like grip on me On a leash, by the reigns Got a look that puts me in chains I tried a subtle suggestion A more direct approach I can't make your connection You're beyond reproach No need for petty excuses No need for dumbing around I don't know what the use is But what you knowing down Got a lock, got a key Got some kind of vice-like grip on me On a leash, by the reigns Got a look that puts me in chains Weird mix of lyrics here: Do you like the reflection? Do you love the reflection? Do you like what you see? Do you like the attention? Do you like the attention you get from me? Hey! Yeah! Hey! Hey! Now that you have my attention... Got some kind of vice-like grip on me Hey, hey, hey... Got a lock, Got a key.
