Turn on your answering machine, and I'll fly into your screen
Like a little bug, or someone you don't think much of
Turn off your telephone, make the whole world think you're not at home
Just pretend you're not avoiding me

Big tough guy, won't even look me in the eye
Or find the words to tell me goodbye
You look at me, I'm stronger than you'll ever be
But you just see a crybaby

Keep up your guard, put a muzzle on your heart
Like a little pup, who won't sit down and won't shut up
Push it off on me, just blame my insecurity
And walk away from your confusion

Big tough guy, won't even look me in the eye
Or find the words to tell me goodbye
It wasn't meant to be, oh I let you get so close to me
But you just called me crybaby

Oh, don't give yourself away, don't get too close, don't lose your head
Oh, don't give yourself away, don't get too close, don't lose your head

You saw me shed a tear, I saw you disappear
Like a little ghost, just when I needed you the most
You said your love was true, oh, but you found better things to do
And threw away all we had started

Big tough guy, just let love pass you by
Don't even stop to wonder why
You look at me, I'm stronger than you'll ever be
But you just see a crybaby

Ohhhhhhhh,
Ohhhhhhhh,
Crybaby
