Okay, Toby. F*** off.

Heather! Can't you be|a little bit more sensitive?

Me? Me? Me be|more sensitive?

You are a jerk-off!

Another kiss|is what it takes

- Albuquerque.|- You can't sleep

- You can't eat|- Albany.

There's no doubt

You're in deep

Your throat is tight|You can't breathe

Another kiss is all you need|Whoa-oh-ohh

- Why are you tormenting me?|- You like to think you're immune to the stuff

- Why don't you go f*** a sheep or your sister or yourself?|- Oh, yeah

Brain-dead|redneck a**hole!

Can't get enough|You know you're gonna have to face it

You're addicted to love|You see the signs

But you can't read

You're runnin' at|a different speed

Your heart beats|in double time

- Another kiss|- Um, Billy?

- And you'll be mine|- Hi.

- A one-track mind, you can't be saved|- Do you wanna dance?

- Oblivion is all you crave|- I mean, it's just 'cause...

this song is,|like, so great.

Mm. Never mind.

Unless, you know,|you want to.

- Whoa, you like to think|- Yeah. I mean-

- That you're immune to this stuff|- Y-Y- Sure. Why not?

- Oh, yeah -|Really? - Wh- Um-

- It's closer to the truth|- Could you wait here?

- To say you can't get enough -|I-I-I'll be right back. - Okay.

- Okay.|- You know, you're gonna have to face it You're addicted to love

Might as well face it|You're addicted to love

- Might as well face it|- Hey, Christie.

- You're addicted to love|- That Romy girl just asked me to dance with her.

- Might as well face it|- Oh, you're kidding me! Oh, that's pathetic!

- Might as well face it|- W-W-W-What should I do?

Let me take care of this.

- Michele?|- Oh, God. Okay, so what did he say?

- "Sure. Why not?"|- Oh, my God!

- Thanks a lot, Romy.|- What?

Thanks for stealing|my boyfriend.

- What are you talking about?|- Billy just broke up with me.

Apparently he's had a crush on|you since Mr Roswell's class.

And now that he knows that you like him, he|doesn't want to "pretend" with me any more.

My life was perfect|and you've ruined it.

Go for it|Groove ahead

I swear to God, Christie,|I didn't even think he'd dance with me.

- To whip it, Whip it good|- Wow. She is really P.O.'d.

- This is so cool!|- Oh, I know.

You know what is so weird? I had this|dream, where Billy was like, in love with me.

And I mean, he was in a wheelchair, but|still, it's like it's coming true or something!

- Uh-huh.|- How's my hair?

Perfect. Okay, Romy, you look so|good with blonde hair and black roots.

- It's like, not even funny.|- I have to say...

this is turning out to be one of|the very best nights of my entire life.

Yay, yay!

Lyin' in my bed I hear|the clock tick

And think of you

Caught up in circles

Confusion is nothing new
