So you want to be his girlfriend,
you want him to be good to you.
But you know that it’s just passion,
passing fancy, passing through.
And then everytime you see him.
Oh lord you don’t know what to do
and your money flows like water
and the monkey’s got the best of you.
And I look into your sad eyes,
say girlfriend what is wrong with you
and you know you’re such a beauty
and that boy just doesn’t deserve you.
’Cause he lies, oh no it’s nothing new
and you’re trying to be with him
and I’m trying to get through to you.
But he’s so beautiful, omygod yeah, he’s so beautiful.
And you’re saying it’s a bad time,
and that this boy’s expecting you.
And you just can’t keep him waiting
cause then honey lord knows what he’ll do.
Well that’s fine, I won’t be keeping you.
It’s your life you gotta live it
guess I’ll try and find some work to do.
But he’s so beautiful, I heard you say it, he’s so beautiful.
Try and change your mind girl.
Find someone who might stay.
He just crashes into your world.
But it’s worth it for the good lay, we say.
Oh we all say, when we feel this way.
And the lights go down, after one more day.
And we’re all alone, and we feel the pain.
But we like our lives and we like this pain
and we like it like it, we like it like it like it this way.
