My baby don't mess around
Because she loves me so
And this I know for sure
But does she really want me
But can't stand to see me
Walk out the door

Don't try to fight the feeling
'Cause the thought alone
Is killin' me right now
Thank God for mom and dad
For sticking two together
'Cause we dont know how

Hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya

You think you've got it
Oh, you think you've got it
But got it just don't get it
'Til there's nothing at all

We've been together
Oh, we've been together
But separate's always better
When there's feelings involved

And if they say that nothing is forever
Then what makes, then what makes
Then what makes, then what makes
Love the exception?

And why you, why
Why you're in denial
When we know we're not happy here?

Hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya
Hey ya, hey ya
