This just in, where to begin
Grin and bear it, it's bare and grim
Adoration, titillation, I'm the victim now
Because she's figured me out
She lights my candle, she has a handle on me
It's going well but I'm scared as hell
That she'll figure me out
She thinks it's sacred to be naked
But I don't care, cause she's had me there
You see she's figured me out
And I want to shout at the top of my lungs now
But oh my god, if she hears me she'll come running in
These are my hands, these are my faults
These are my plans
There are my nasty little thoughts
I wrote 'em down for you to contemplate
At a later date
Well the word is out, what's it all about
Doubtless shady, no shadow of doubt
In moderation, this sensation would be fabulous
But she's figured me out
She's in my shower for an hour
She's just washin' and wonderin'
And trying to figure me out
And I want to shout at the top of my lungs now
But oh my god, if she hears me she'll come running in
These are my hands, these are my faults
These are my plans and these are my nasty little thoughts
I wrote 'em down for you to contemplate
It's a little bit of something that I feel
Oh man, I just can't deal
And other than this distance that has covered me
Can't you see that you have smothered me
Well, you're out there, just stay out there
Just when I was on to something else
That's when she figures me out
Grin and bear it, it's bare and grim
Adoration, titillation, I'm the victim now
Because she's figured me out
She lights my candle, she has a handle on me
It's going well but I'm scared as hell
That she'll figure me out
She thinks it's sacred to be naked
But I don't care, cause she's had me there
You see she's figured me out
And I want to shout at the top of my lungs now
But oh my god, if she hears me she'll come running in
These are my hands, these are my faults
These are my plans
There are my nasty little thoughts
I wrote 'em down for you to contemplate
At a later date
Well the word is out, what's it all about
Doubtless shady, no shadow of doubt
In moderation, this sensation would be fabulous
But she's figured me out
She's in my shower for an hour
She's just washin' and wonderin'
And trying to figure me out
And I want to shout at the top of my lungs now
But oh my god, if she hears me she'll come running in
These are my hands, these are my faults
These are my plans and these are my nasty little thoughts
I wrote 'em down for you to contemplate
It's a little bit of something that I feel

kind of disappointing that most of the comments are only on the "radio songs"...seems like most of the people only know stroke 9 from the songs they hear on the radio...some fair-weather fans?! (no offense)
as for the rest...keep on strokin' (hehe)
It's going well but I'm scared as hell/That she'll figure me out" it's him coming to the reality that he's let his defense down. kind of a morning after prospective, where he finds out that "In moderation, this sensation would be fabulous
But she's figured me out" and he's overcome, and sort of panicking that he's been "committed"
