Lyrics
Temperamental
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.
She's shakin' like a dash-board doll
Cool, cruel and calculating
A beauty in the back seat
She runs hot and leaves you cold
She's wicked with a mean streak
A time-bomb ticking away
Here comes trouble right on the double
With a split-personality
Heaven knows there's Hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude
Don't shoot, it's only me, babe
Watch what you might say, hey
And how you say it
She's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on
A good little girl like that
She's oh-so twisted
She's so temperamental
Just a little bit
Temperamental
One minute she's an innocent child
Sweet taste of her emotion
Angel with a strange twist
Man, it's all worthwhile
Bad luck comin' on strong
Ready to meet it halfway home
Heartbreaker
Time to meet the maker
'Cause her mind's long-gone
Heaven knows there's Hell to pay
Never have I seen such an attitude
Don't shoot, it's only me, babe
Watch what you might say hey
And how you say it
She's so temperamental
Don't turn your back on
A good little girl like that
She's oh, so twisted
She's so temperamental
Just a little bit wicked
