lyrics

I'm caught in a trap
You won't walk out on me despite
All of my best efforts pushing you away
Dropped all my best hints
I borrowed Dykes To Watch Out For
And The Color Purple from the library
Oh hey hey hey

But still you turn up at my door
With a dogged and determined pretty face
What more must I do to make you quit this place?
Because you constantly refuse to take the bait
And you think things are so great
'Cause you're so straight
Yeah you're so straight

Where is your fire?
Where is the rage that I'd learned to
Accommodate and mollify with time?
Crying through the night
And I can't provoke you at all
To abandon me to who I need to be
Oh hey hey hey

But still you turn up at my door
With a dogged and determined pretty face
What more must I do to make you quit this place?
Oh no, sweetheart, I'd hate for you to fixate
But I just wish we had stayed mates
'Cause you're so straight
Yeah you're so straight

I can't leave you
I don't want to be the one to blame
Or feel the shame I shouldn't have to feel
At Catholic school they put the boot in
God above and head girl equally
You never did that to me
So don't start now
No, don't you start now

But still you turn up at my door
With a dogged and determined pretty face
What more must I do to make you quit this place?
Oh boy, quit your crying, you're not inadequate
I just can't look at you naked
'Cause you're so straight
Yeah you're so straight
Yeah you're so straight
Yeah you're so straight
