I've said it once and I'll say it again
I've got something hanging over my head
I was laying on your shoulder, perfectly content
Until you told me all over again

I ain't got no sob story to write
But just like everyone else I'm living this life
And you don't need to win me over and there ain't no other side
To shuffle me from I belong where I decide

But you say we don't mess around
You've got no freedom to come down
We don't take angels from the sky, oh no
We don't mess around
You're meant to be among the clouds 'cause your an angel
Oh but that's a lie, oh oh oh, oh oh

Well, I suppose you think I'm so flattered to hear
That I'm the whisper conscience in your ear, yeah
And that's exactly the reason that I'll never fit in here
Well, nothing's ever that black and white, my dear, no

'Cause you say we don't mess around
You've got no freedom to come down
We don't take angels from the sky, oh no
We don't mess around
You're meant to be among the clouds 'cause your an angel
Oh but that's a lie, oh oh oh

I'm not your angel, darling
I'm not your angel, darling
I, I, I am never gonna be
I'm not your angel, darling
I'm not your angel, darling
I, I, I am never gonna be

We don't mess around
You've got no freedom to come down
We don't take angels from the sky, oh no, no
We don't mess around
You're meant to be among the clouds 'cause your an angel
Oh but that's a lie, oh oh

We don't mess around
You've got no freedom to come down
We don't take angels from the sky, no, no, no
We don't mess around
You're meant to be among the clouds 'cause your an angel
But that's a lie, oh oh

We don't mess around
But you've got no freedom to come down
We don't take angels from the sky, oh, no, no
We don't mess around
You're meant to be among the clouds, 'cause your an angel
Oh but that's a lie
I'm never gonna be
