LYRICS

I don’t think it’s going to happen anymore
You took my thoughts from me now I want nothing mo-o-ore
And did you think you could just take it all away
I don’t think it’s happening, this is what I say-ay-ay-ay-ay

Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Cause I found it all
Twenny one
Twenny one
Twenny one

So I don’t think it’s going to happen anymore
I don’t think it’s going to happen anymo-o-o-o-ore

Twenny one
