Woowho, yeehoo
Woowho, yeehoo
Woowho, yeehoo
Woowho, yeehoo

(Verse 1)

If I could escape
I would, but first of all let me say
I must apologize for acting stinkin treating you this way

Cause I've been acting like sour milk all on the floor
It's your fault you didn't shut the refridgerator
Maybe that's the reason I've been acting so cold

If I could escape
And re-create a place as my own world(my world)
And I could be your favorite girl
Forever, perfectly together
And tell me boy, now wouldn't that be sweet?

If I could be sweet (be sweet)
I know I've been a real bad girl (bad girl)
I didn't mean for you to get hurt
Whatsoever, we can make it better
And tell me boy, Now wouldn't that be sweet?
(Sweet escape)

(I wanna get away, to our sweet escape
I wanna get away, to my sweet escape
Yeah)

You let me down
I'm at my lowest boiling point
Come help me out
I need to get me out of this joint
Come on, let's bounce
Counting on you to turn me around
Instead of clowning around let's look for some common ground

So baby, times getting a little crazy
I've been getting a little lazy
Waiting for you to come save me
I can see that you're angry

By the way the you treat me
Hopefully you don't leave me
Want to take you with me

If I could escape(escape)
And re-create a place as my own world (my world)
And I could be your favorite girl
Forever, perfectly together
And tell me boy, now wouldn't that be sweet?

If I could be sweet
I know I've been a real bad girl (bad girl)
I didn't mean for you to get hurt
Whatsoever, we can make it better
And tell me boy, now wouldn't that be sweet?
Sweet escape

Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
(If I could escape)x2

Cause I've been acting like sour milk all on the floor
It's your fault you didn't shut the refridgerator
Maybe that's the reason I've been acting so cold

If I could escape (escape)
And re-create a place in my own world (my world)
And I could be your favorite girl
Forever, perfectly together
Now tell me boy, now wouldn't that be sweet?

If I could be sweet
I know I've been a real bad girl (bad girl)
I didn't mean for you to get hurt
Whatsoever, we can make it better
Now tell me boy, now wouldn't that be sweet?
Sweet escape

Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho

(I wanna get away, to our sweet escape
I wanna get away, to my sweet escape
Yeah)

Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
Woowho, yeewho
