You held my hand and walked me home I know
While you gave me that kiss it was something like this it made me go ooh ohh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears, why did you have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love cause your so hard to trust
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that?
Your the one who gives it all away

[Chorus:]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was somethin I was gonna do?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
Your better off that way

Don't think that your charmin the fact that your arm is now around my neck
I got you in my pants I'll have to kick your ass and make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you to stop, thought I liked you a lot, but I'm really upset
Get out of my head get off of my bed yeah thats what I said
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that, your the one who, throws it all away

[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was somethin I was gonna do?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
Your better off that way

This guilt trip that you put me on won't, mess me up but your no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away

[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was somethin I was gonna do?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
Your better off that way

Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway

i dont think her MUSIC is that bad, but what she "represents" is completely fake, her=poser, her music=pretty good

The only thing that saved this song is the shot of Avril in her undies in the video.

I usually don't like avril lavigne, but this song is amazing. The message in it should be heard by teenagers worldwide. And not to mention alot of 12 year olds lately.

I don't really like her but when I heard this song i was amazed about how perfect this is for all young girls. It amazed me Avril (April) had this in her.

I totally dig this song. I don't care if she IS a poser. I don't listen to her music because of who she is or THINKS she is. I listen to it because I enjoy pop music and her POP music is good without being annoying.

I think that when guys ask girls for 'it' and we say no that they should respect that and not go and break up with us. This song clearly states that and guys should just get that we're not ready.

I dislike the false image she tries to propagate, but I am a fan of her music and respect her as one of the better artists of pop that's aimed for tweens and teens. And I do like this song and video. =]

I can see the whole Britney Spears-type thing happening with Avril. Wait a couple years and she'll be a huge slut, posing for Maxim, saying she's not a babysitter for your tweens.

Someday she'll learn to use some sort of literary tools that writers use, like metaphors and imagery, instead of just telling highschool stories word for word and making them rhyme.

omg this song was just sex to my ears. I just wanted to crawl into my headphones and lick avril's pussy cleannnnnn. mmm mmm mmm canadaians. Hey theres a dude singing on this song also wtf. I bought this cd today, hahahahhahahaha. Catchy tunes, I like it. OMG has anyone else seen avril lavigne in pigtails? Fucking orgasm on the spot. I want her to get on he knees and start sucking and I'll grab those pigtails and ride that bitch like there's no tomorrow. BTW, I'm 42, I enjoy staring at my wall for hours on end, I live with my parents and I have 4 kids. Tony, michael (hes the gay one), Shelly, and Michael (NOT gay). They also live with me and my parents.

Poopstick says it right, Avril's lyrics suck and you almost feel no emotion from her while listening to them. Well, no MATURE emotions anyway......

I wish there were more girls willing to share Avril's stance on this issue. This song rules, showing off the extent of Avril's abilities

Heh.
I can't believe I actually watched the video for this...
The heart that was being carved... A+D.
Nice. Avril and Derrick.... Must be her first love.

I'm gonna love it when it ends.. and then she becomes depressive.
Only then can her songwriting improve.. I just really want to see a dark side of this girl.
