Senselessly Cruel
When I was a poor young boy at school
Girls like you always played me for a fool
But now, the time has come to lay the waste
The theory people have of getting an acquired taste
You treated me
Oh (oh-oh-oh), so wrong, so senselessly cruel
Oh (oh-oh-oh), baby, you were so senselessly cruel
From the beginnings, I suspected the worst
And you didn't disappoint me
It was just that you were the first
But now, I wouldn't let you touch me if you were within a foot
And girl, I'm never ever gonna get hurt
'Cause you treated me
Oh (oh-oh-oh), so wrong, so senselessly cruel
Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh), now, so senselessly cruel
(Oh-oh-oh, senselessly cruel)
(Oh-oh-oh, senselessly cruel)
Girls like you always played me for a fool
But now, the time has come to lay the waste
The theory people have of getting an acquired taste
You treated me
Oh (oh-oh-oh), so wrong, so senselessly cruel
Oh (oh-oh-oh), baby, you were so senselessly cruel
From the beginnings, I suspected the worst
And you didn't disappoint me
It was just that you were the first
But now, I wouldn't let you touch me if you were within a foot
And girl, I'm never ever gonna get hurt
'Cause you treated me
Oh (oh-oh-oh), so wrong, so senselessly cruel
Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh), now, so senselessly cruel
(Oh-oh-oh, senselessly cruel)
(Oh-oh-oh, senselessly cruel)
