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.
I got something to say that might cause you pain
If I catch you talking to that boy again
I'm gonna let you down
And leave you flat
Because I told you before
Oh, you can't do that
Well, Its the second time
I've caught you talking to him
Do I have to tell you one more time I think its a sin
I think I'll let you down (let you down)
And leave you flat (gonna let you down and leave you flat)
Because I told you before
Oh, you can't do that
Everybody's green
Cause I'm the one who won your love
But if they'd seen
You talking that way
They'd laugh in my face.
So please listen to me if you want to stay mine
I can't help my feelings i'll go out of my mind
I'm gonna let you down (let you down)
And leave you flat (gonna let you down and leave you flat)
Because I told you before
Oh, you can't do that
Wah!
(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)
Everybody's green
Cause I'm the one who won your love
But if they'd seen
You talking that way
They'd laugh in my face
So please listen to me if you want to stay mine
I can't help my feelings, I'll go out of my mind
I'm gonna let you down (let you down)
And leave you flat (gonna let you down and leave you flat)
Because I told you before
Oh, you can't do that.
