Cruel With Me
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'd really like to take you for a trip--Be my drink and I'll sip
Show you the world and all the seas--But you have to promise that you won't be mean
Why do all the girls these days act so rough? I asked my baby for a kiss
She slapped me in the face--Must be masochist--RRR
But if youre cruel with me---I'll be cruel with you
and if you fool with me--then you know I'll fool with you
But if you're cool with me you just might see I'm Mr.Right
You could spend the night...doing what? Don't ask
Why girl, are you into bang bang bang--if I wanted to fight I woulda joined a GANG
You start your hitting... you always win
I start to worry when youre grinning at my shins
Why do all the girls these days act so rough? I asked my baby for a kiss
She slapped me in the face--Must be masochist--RRR
But if youre cruel with me---I'll be cruel with you
and if you fool with me--then you know I'll fool with you
But if you're cool with me you just might see I'm Mr.Right
You could spend the night--forget it. Let's just listen to the Tickety Tock Tickety Tock Tickety Tock of the clock... Thas' right We could be normal and wholesome for a while--We could stay home and eat some TV dinners and uh watch Ripley's Believe It... NO!
I dont believe it... I dont wanna be like this... Let's--Let's-- I dont know Let's let our hair down--I dont wanna go to work tomorrow at 9 O'Clock a.m. Forget that--I'd rather stay here and uck with you and do all that weird shit to you that they used to show us in science class I dont know what it is, but it looked fun.
