Oh, Greta
You know I love ya
But can't you see
You don't belong to me
Oh, Greta
You know I want ya
But couldn't it be
You weren't maintained properly
When I saw your ad
Your eyes, they glittered like jewelry

You know I love ya
But can't you see
You don't belong to me
You're falling apart at every turn
Maybe this time I'll finally learn
I step on the gas, my lonely heart brakes
Do you smell something burning?
La, la, la, la … I'm on fire

Can't give me peace of mind
You're driving me insane
Stay in your lane, stay in your lane
Oh, Greta
You know I love ya
But then again, who could foresee
Your master cylinder broke within a year and a half
And you know that she taint free
