Hot Rock |
| I’m on to you |
| Before the night is through |
| I’m going to steal this diamond |
| Hot rock to you |
| I just need to know |
| (I'm not the one you wanted) |
| Now am I to know what you want me to feel? |
| (Not the thing you keep) |
| Counterfeit or real? |
| It’s a caper theme |
| There’s a getaway car |
| A diamond to steal |
| A plan that might go wrong |
| If this is a set up |
| Please let me know |
| I can’t risk my life for a gilded stone |
| (I thought all along this was everything |
| Try not to look too hard to find that it’s not real |
| I knew all along you weren’t everything |
| Then in the darkest hour, I watched you disappear) |
| (I'm not the one you wanted) |
| How am I to know what you want me to feel? |
| (Not the thing you keep) |
| I’m onto you |
| It’s a crafty scene |
| Full of power and greed |
| You tell me not to steal |
| Yet, you still want a thief |
| You write out the plans |
| I carry out the act |
| But then I lose it all |
| If I can’t bring it back |
| (How was I to know this rock was so fragile? |
| It cracked in my hands while I was holding on |
| An uncut stone is flawed and beautiful |
| Don’t try to size me down to fit your tiny hands) |
| (I'm not the girl you wanted) |
| How am I to know what you want me to feel? |
| (Not the one you keep) |
| Counterfeit or real? |
| (It's not real |
| You don’t need to tell me that it’s not real |
| You don’t need to tell me) |
| How am I to know? |
| (I'm not the one you wanted) |
| That you were ever here |
| (I'm not the one you keep) |
| I’m onto you |
| Before this night is through |
| I’m going to steal my heart back |
| And find a love that’s true |
| Hot rock to you |
