[Verse 1] Happy birthday baby What's it going to be Monday morning with a hurricane warning Oh well, I guess you've got yourself to please Jaded. Faded [Pre-Chorus] I don't want to be afraid Jaded. I hate it I don't want to be your slave Saw you peeking round my garden gate I thought you'd liked what you'd seen So I said, "Darling if you want a little of these peaches Just come on and shake my tree" Jaded. Faded [Chorus] I don't want to be your slave Jaded. I hate it I don't want to be afraid Every waking hour We break down in different combinations We spin around in smaller constellations Took a ride on the love wheel Scary, scary go-round and around Honey, Honey I don't want none of your money I just want off before we hit the ground
Jaded. Faded [Pre-Chorus] I don't want to be your friend Jaded. I hate it I don't want to be your slave Saw you hanging around the avenue baby So I got down outta my tree I think I need a little animal honey Come on and shake a little monkey with me Jaded. Faded [Chorus] Oh. I don't want to be afraid Jaded. I hate it I don't want to be your slave Every waking hour We break down in smaller combinations We spin around in different constellations Want to be right there to carry you away Knowing that our love will last through the day It's the same thing Going to be here on the light, on the light I want to see me, see me going away I've been gone such a long time Leaving again today Leaving someday
