Lyrics

I've got a good reason for taking the easy way out.

I have a valid reason for choosing the simpler path.

I got a good reason for taking the easy way out.

I possess a justified reason for opting for the easier route.

She was a day tripper, one way ticket, yeah.

She was a casual adventurer, with a one-way commitment.

It took me so long to find out but I found out.

It took me a considerable amount of time to realize, but eventually, I did.


Now she's a big teaser, she took me half the way there.

Now she is a provocatively elusive person; she led me part of the way but not completely.

She's a big teaser, she took me half the way there.

She is a major tease, guiding me only halfway towards a destination.

It was a day tripper, Sunday driver now.

It was a fleeting experience, like a day trip or a relaxed Sunday drive.

It took me so long but you know I found out.

It took me a significant amount of time, but I eventually discovered the truth.


You can try to please her, she only plays one night stands.

You may attempt to satisfy her, but she engages only in brief, one-night affairs.

You can try just to please her, she only plays one night stands.

Your efforts to please her are futile; she is only interested in short-term encounters.

She was a day tripper, one way baggage, yeah.

She was a temporary adventurer, carrying only what she needed for the journey.

It took me so long, well you know that I found out.

It took me a while, but I eventually discovered the reality of the situation.

When I found out, when I found out.

Upon discovering the truth.


I've got a good reason for taking the easy way out.

I have a valid reason for choosing the simpler path (repeated).

I got a good reason for taking the easy way out.

I possess a justified reason for opting for the easier route (repeated).

She was a day tripper, one way driver, yeah.

She was a casual adventurer, with a one-way commitment (repeated).

It took me so long to find out but I found out.

It took me a considerable amount of time to realize, but eventually, I did (repeated).


Well, I got a good reason for taking the easy way out.

I have a valid reason for choosing the simpler path (repeated).

Yes, I got a good reason, girl, for taking the easy way out.

I possess a justified reason for opting for the easier route (repeated).

She was a day tripper, one way ticket, yeah.

She was a casual adventurer, with a one-way commitment (repeated).

It took me so long to find out but I found out.

It took me a considerable amount of time to realize, but eventually, I did (repeated).
