Jealousy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mess with my girl, that's what you're trying to do
I don't think so, I'll make you black and blue
And everytime I try to explain, she just complain
She just complain, she just complain
I'm going insane
I know my mistrust is causing you pain
But hold on, look at that pox over there
Look at him stare, I'll tear out his hair
Jealousy is cruel
Has me like a fool
When they look at you,
Can't tell what I'll do
Can't tell what I'll do
Because
Your sweet romance
Lifts me, fills me with joy
I'm in a trance
You make me a good boy
Your sweet romance
Lifts me, fills me with joy
I'm in a trance
You make me a good
You make me a good
You make me a bad boy
Tell me this and tell me no more
See the next man that walks through that door
When he looks at you
What do you want me to do
Should I look down
Or should I go to town
See I can be an omadhaun
But at least I stand up for
What's right and what's wrong
She thinks I'm wrong, I think I'm right
You just walked in
I hope you can fight
Jealousy is cruel
Has me like a fool
When they look at you
Can't tell what I'll do
Can't tell what I'll do
Well if I could change in any way
You know that I would change today
If I could change in any way, today
Well if I could change in any way
You know that I would change today
If I could change in any way, today
Your sweet romance
Lifts me, fills me with joy
I'm in a trance
You make me a good boy
Your sweet romance
Lifts me, fills me with joy
I'm in a trance
You make me a good
You make me a good
You make me a good boy.
