Being nice never got you anywhere |
|
Being sweet got you in troubles there |
|
Being nice no never got you very far |
|
You cop it sweet now get on play your part |
|
Sweet memory can't help you grow |
|
Unless you want to live in the past |
|
And live in what you know |
|
You know the rules where'd they ever get you |
|
Someone's gonna push until they get a rise out of you |
|
So come out and say it |
|
This ain't the way you wanted to play it |
|
When your frustration flies over your eyes |
|
And you see your girl with another guy |
|
How many times are you going to live this through |
|
He ain't gonna change, he doesn't deserve you |
|
If you're gonna try well it's got to come true |
|
Pick up all your strength and we'll be waiting here for you |
|
If you're got your doubts, think a year down the line |
|
If you think it's bad now, well baby give it time |
|
He seems to squeeze, all the love out of you |
|
I'm scared he ain't gonna leave nothing left for you |
|
So come out and say it |
|
This ain't the way you wanted to play it |
|
When your frustration flies over your eyes |
|
And you see your boy with another girl |
|
Oh being nice never got you anywhere |
|
Being sweet got you in troubles there |
|
Oh being nice no never got you very far |
|
You cop it sweet now get on play your part |
|
So come out and say it |
|
This ain't the way you wanted to play it |
|
When your frustration flies over your eyes |
|
And you see your boy with another girl |
|
Oh did it take you |
|
Did it take you by surprise |
|
Did it take you |
|
Did it take you |
|
Did it take you by surprise |
