about

A girlfriend does not prove to be the true and trusted love of his live.
It's time for her to go.

lyrics

FOOL ME ONCE, DON’T FOOL ME TWICE

YOU KNOW YOU’VE REALLY GOT TO GO
IT’S RATHER LATER THAN YOU THINK
YOU’VE WIPED ME OUT OF ALL MY DOUGH
NOW MY SHIP’S BEGUN TO SINK
IT USED TO BE SO VERY NICE
FOOL ME ONCE, DON’T FOOL ME TWICE

I’VE GOT NOTHING MORE TO GIVE
YOU’VE WASTED ALL MY PRECIOUS TIME
I’M HOPING I CAN ONLY LIVE
AND NOT BE GONE BEFORE MY TIME
I GUESS I’VE REALLY PAID THE PRICE
FOOL ME ONCE, DON’T FOOL ME TWICE (C, C7)

C.YOU KNOW I REALLY TRIED TO CARE
BUT YOU TOOK MORE THAN YOUR SHARE
YOU WERE THE ONE I USED TO TRUST
NOW THIS WHOLE IS A BUST

I GAVE YOU ALL THE BREAD I HAD
YOU LOST IT ALL IN A GAME
NOW BABY – THAT WAS KIND OF SAD
I KNOW YOU’RE THE ONE TO BLAME
NOW IT’S TIME TO ROLL YOUR DICE
FOOL ME ONCE, DON’T FOOL ME TWICE

I’VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOUR SWEET TALK
YOU SAY YOU GOT NO PLACE TO GO
NOW IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO WALK
I JUST CAN’T TAKE IT ANY MO’
I USED TO THINK THAT I WAS WISE
FOOL ME ONCE, DON’T FOOL ME TWICE X3
