Lyrics

CALCULATED RISK

VERSE 1
Some guys build their courage
With some beer or wine Yes wine
Others try to play it cool
They always have a line So fine
My tongue isn't working
Bound up in a knot
I'm panicked and I'm nervous and I'm kind of hot!

CHORUS
I'll take a calculated risk
If I die inside I know I surely missed
Then I'll cross one more thing off my list
Just another boy hoping to get kissed
a calculated risk, a calculated risk
INTRO


VERSE 2
Let me stop and catch my breath
and plan a strategy That's thinkin'
So when I make my move,
it doesn't end in tragedy Oh no!
Why can't I say it
with my false composure
Why can't I say it Naked in my exposure

CHORUS

VERSE 4
I've my head screwed on
My heart back in my chest Bumpity-bump
Doesn't matter how I do it
As long as it's my best Uh-huh
C'mon boy let's go
Ain't afraid of nothin'
Ain't afraid of nothin' Except that she'll say no

CHORUS
I'll take a calculated risk
If I die inside I know I surely missed
Then I'll cross one more thing off my list
Just another boy hoping to get kissed
a calculated risk, I gotta ask her now
a calculated risk, I got my courage up
a calculated risk, I hope she don't say no
a calculated risk
