-- Original, human-written lyrics -- [Verse 1] Opposites attract is what they said, and we were different, one shade blue, the other red, yet entwined lovers in our youth wed. [Pre-Chorus] When North points South likes don't attract, and to my touch, you don't react, it's too broken and that's a fact. [Chorus] Sitting here, stuck tight, spinning my wheels, like a broken magnet my heart still reels, two opposites, once a strong attraction, but now there's only silent inaction. if the magnet's broken, that bond is lost, so much at stake, what a terrible cost, now you are playing for the other team, what drew us close has split our world between, two poles, same pull, we're business casual. [Verse 2] In the cold granite our love was born high school and on, college, beyond, to the road Dorn, knw'ng not what was about to be torn. [Pre-Chorus] When North points South likes don't attract, and to my touch, you don't react, it's too broken and that's a fact. [Chorus] Sitting here, stuck tight, spinning my wheels, like a broken magnet my heart still reels, two opposites, once a strong attraction, but now there's only silent inaction. if the magnet's broken, that bond is lost, so much at stake, what a terrible cost, now you are playing for the other team, what drew us close has split our world between, two poles, same pull, we're business casual. [Verse 3] Kids of our own we said we always wanted, to raise them right, a loving home, you responded, but now that task has left us daunted. [Bridge] Eighteen years lovers, how could this happen? Under the covers a secret you kept. Was it all a lie? That I can't accept. [Final Chorus] Sitting here, stuck tight, spinning my wheels, like a broken magnet my heart still reels, two opposites, once a strong attraction, but now there's only silent inaction. if the magnet's broken, that bond is lost, so much at stake, what a terrible cost, now you are playing for the other team, what drew us close has split our world between, two poles, same pull, we're business casual. we're business casual. magnets broken, two poles, same pull now we're just business casual, business casual.
