I Only Wanted Sex Lyrics

cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry

the hardest part of goodbye
the hardest part of all
i say those words to you now
and i watch you crawl back to me
where is your dignity
oh where is your dignity

i make you promises and
i break them all apart
i’m lying like a sidewalk
a typical loves me, loves me not
a typical loves me, loves me not
a typical loves me, loves me not

i never really loved you
i never loved you back
i never even liked you
i only wanted sex
sex

cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby

the hardest part of goodbye
is moving all your stuff
hey what’s the name of that one guy
i sure could use his pick up truck
i surely could use his pick up truck
i surely could use his pick up truck

i never really loved you
i never loved you back
i never even liked you
i only wanted sex
i never really loved you
i never loved you back
i never even liked you
i only wanted sex
sex
i only wanted
i only wanted sex

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Great to hear this from a woman. Sometimes that's all we want - somebody to come home to, but mostly somebody to fuck.
