She's a dangerous kind and I like it that way
On the night we met I sent an SOS
Turned me upside down, the look on her face
She's a perfect mess, a real one of a kind
And when the curtains closed, we were getting close
And the clothes in the corner laid there all night

Ooh, she didn't skip a single beat
Left me there while I was still asleep

Girl, you shoulda been a drummer
You break me down like no other
You beat my heart black and bruised
No one does it like you do
No doubt, you got perfect rhythm
Crash and burn and then it ended
You played me so hard, so fair
Just like heavy metal thunder
Girl, you shoulda been a drummer

When the morning came along
She didn't say goodbye but I didn't mind
Because a scratch is what you're gonna get
When you open the door and let a lion inside

Ooh, she didn't skip a single beat
Left me there while I was still asleep

Girl, you shoulda been a drummer
You break me down like no other
You beat my heart black and bruised
No one does it like you do
No doubt, you got perfect rhythm
Crash and burn and then it ended
You played me so hard, so fair
Just like heavy metal thunder
Girl, you shoulda been a drummer

Oh, she never skipped a single beat

Ooh, she didn't skip a single beat
Left me there while I was still asleep

Girl, you shoulda been a drummer
You break me down like no other
You beat my heart black and bruised
No one does it like you do
No doubt, you got perfect rhythm
Crash and burn and then it ended
You played me so hard, so fair
Just like heavy metal thunder
Girl, you shoulda been a drummer

Girl, you shoulda been a drummer
