by: George MichaelLooking for some education
Made my way into the sun
All that bullshit conversation

Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, i ain't mr. Right
But if you're looking for fastlove
If that's love in your eyes
It's more than enough
Had some had luck
So fastlove is all that i've got on my mind
What's there to think about baby?
Looking for some affirmation
Made my way into the sun
My friends got their ladies,
They're all having babies
But i just want to have some fun
I won't bore you with the details haby
Gonna get there in your own sweet time
Let's just say that maybe
You could help to ease my mind
Baby, i ain't mr. Right
What's there to think about baby?
Get yourself some lessons in love
In the absence of security
I made my way into the sun
Stupid cupid keeps on calling me
But i see nothing in his eyes
I miss my baby, oh yeah
I miss my baby tonight
So why don't we make a little room
In my bmw babe
Searching for some peace of mind
Hey i'll help you find it
I do believe that we are practicing
The same religion
You really ought to get up now
