Give me something good to do

Write me a line to say

Just give me someone I could be

If I′m always standing in the way

Or am I just a paper doll

Looking for a pair of scissors?

That won't cut me into something small

But cut me free from the danger

Sometimes I feel like quitting

And, making someone do my bidding

You′re laughing but I'm not kidding

I feel like I'm gonna lose it

God knows I didn′t choose it

Right when I wasn′t looking

Trouble found me

Trouble found me

But you give me a new condition

Is that too big a favor?

Truth without apprehension

'Cause I′ve been taught good behavior

I don't care what you want to know

Let me show you to the door

You give me the disease

Now you′re selling me the cure

My affections are too soft

To put a spell on me isn't hard

Good intentions feed the wolves and sharks

Feels like I′m gonna lose it

God know I didn't choose it

Right when I wasn't looking

Trouble found me (trouble)

Trouble found me

Everything that I do

I thought I was supposed to

But nothing that I can do

Is enough for you

Gonna leave that trouble behind me

Won′t be the shadow that binds me

Next time I′m gonna be ready

When trouble finds me (trouble)

Trouble finds me (trouble)

Trouble finds me
