I'm not the type to fall in love
But now I am
And I blame that shit on cupidBecause now every time
You come around
I start to act fucking stupidI get really really nervous
And I don't know how to think
I get butterflies in my stomach
When its almost time for us to meetSo then I rehearse it
Well, the words i'm about to speak
Over and over, in my head
But then cupid does his thingHe gets his pointy arrow
And he aims it right at meAnd I never did like cupid
I always thought he was clueless
It was as if he never stopped to think
Then get his arrow and say
"Let me actually aim this thing."So it felt like my whole life
As I walk I see arrows pass by
See bodies dropping one by one
Then lifted up by the power of loveEverybody finding their "soulmate"
Sometimes i try to distract cupid
Just so I can steal his arrow
And if i'm lucky
Use it on a young fellow
Or maybe myselfBut that's not how it goes
You can't make yourself
Fall in loveIt happens to you,
You don't choose to fall in love
Love chooses youCupid chooses you
He doesn't aim his arrow at anyone
Unless he has a partner for youOh stupid cupid
I think I just got hit
By your arrow,
Cause this time
You didn't missI turned around
And saw his smile,
Then thought
"Cupid, he may be it."
