[Verse 1] QMC to the YMCA Places I had to stay Walked me around cashpoints Telling me you would pay I kept it in my chest Like loose change in my shoe You made every promise Sound so close to true [Pre-Chorus] And I still remember The way you said my name Like help was on the corner Then you changed the game [Chorus] QMC to the YMCA You said it’d be okay QMC to the YMCA Then you let me wait Cashpoint after cashpoint I believed the bait QMC to the YMCA Now I know the shape [Verse 2] First it was a short ride Then it turned into days Same old folded smile Same old borrowed ways I watched the screen go blank I watched my hope go thin Every time you said “soon” I let you back in [Pre-Chorus] And I still remember The way you said my name Like help was on the corner Then you changed the game [Chorus] QMC to the YMCA You said it’d be okay QMC to the YMCA Then you let me wait Cashpoint after cashpoint I believed the bait QMC to the YMCA Now I know the shape [Bridge] No more roundabout No more empty rain checks I learned your pretty words Don’t cover broken steps If you want me near You’ll need more than talk I don’t follow promises I follow what you’ve got [Final Chorus] QMC to the YMCA You said it’d be okay QMC to the YMCA Then you let me wait Cashpoint after cashpoint I believed the bait QMC to the YMCA Now I know the shape QMC to the YMCA I took the long way back QMC to the YMCA I don’t need that track
