Practice What You Preach
If you don't love me
Don't waste my time
Talking about the good things
On your mind
If you're going to tell me
That you really care
Quit playing on my heart strings
When you won't be there
When you make a promise
You can't keep
You better practice
What you preach
If you've got a problem
You want to talk it out
But are you going to do what
You've been talking about?
You tell me that a good man
Is hard to find
But when you find a good one
You leave him behind
When you make a promise
You can't keep
You better practice
What you preach
If you can't put your
Words to the test
The only thing you're good for
Is making a mess
You're making a mess
People everywhere
They're talking every day
They disregard each other
Now there's nothing more to say
Hey
When you make a promise
You can't keep
You better practice
What you preach
If you can't put your
Words to the test
The only thing you're good for
Is making a mess
Don't waste my time
Talking about the good things
On your mind
If you're going to tell me
That you really care
Quit playing on my heart strings
When you won't be there
When you make a promise
You can't keep
You better practice
What you preach
If you've got a problem
You want to talk it out
But are you going to do what
You've been talking about?
You tell me that a good man
Is hard to find
But when you find a good one
You leave him behind
When you make a promise
You can't keep
You better practice
What you preach
If you can't put your
Words to the test
The only thing you're good for
Is making a mess
You're making a mess
People everywhere
They're talking every day
They disregard each other
Now there's nothing more to say
Hey
When you make a promise
You can't keep
You better practice
What you preach
If you can't put your
Words to the test
The only thing you're good for
Is making a mess
