It's so confusing
You sure been messing with my mind
You cut me loose and
Suddenly we're doing fine
And I'm not a perfect little girl
But I should get what I deserve
And I refuse to be your mother
So tell me
What's in it for me - I really gotta know
What's in it for me, this ain't a one man show
In the my life you come and you go
Ain't happy about it so I gotta know
What's in it, what's in it for me
(What's in it, what's in it
What's in it, what's in it)
Please understand me
Your games ain't working anymore
Ain't working anymore
You can't have this candy
And keep one foot outside the door, no
And how you only come around
When your life is upside down
And I'm about to blow your cover
So tell me
What's in it for me - I really gotta know
What's in it for me, this ain't a one man show
In the my life you come and you go
Ain't happy about it so I gotta know
What's in it, what's in it for me
(What's in it, what's in it
What's in it, what's in it)
I got no time for a hit and run
I need more than a little fun
'Cause I only play for keeps
I gotta know what's it all about
Go ahead and spit it out
Say what's in it for me
What's in it for me...
Yeah!
(What's in it, what's in it)
Oh, I really gotta know, oh
(What's in it, what's in it)
Yeah, this ain't no one man show
In the my life you come and you go
Ain't happy about it so I gotta know
What's in it for me - I really gotta know, oh
What's in it for me, this ain't a one man show
In the my life you come and you go
Ain't happy about it so I gotta know
What's in it, what's in it for me
(What's in it, what's in it)
Oh, what's in it, what's in it for me
