Girl's Gonna Kill You

from Tangled Up In Love by The Hightops

lyrics

GIRL'S GONNA KILL YOU

You could turn the other way
But it’s right before your eyes
You try to make her happy
While she fills your head with lies
She runs your heart in circles until you don’t know what to do
And if you don’t get smart, the girl’s gonna kill you

Oh, there’s no use in pretending things could ever be the same
She’s heartless like a hurricane, but twice as hard to tame
If you don’t run for shelter, she’s gonna tear your world in two
And if you don’t see that, the girl’s gonna kill you

Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you
Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you

You've tried to take exception for the way that she behaves
You offer your forgiveness, while she’s digging you your grave
Any fool could see it, that is, any fool but you
And if you don’t wise up, the girl’s gonna kill you

Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you

Well, I did my best to warn you
When I saw the whole thing start
But who would have believed that it would ever go that far?
No one can convince you, there’s nothing you can do
And if you don’t give up, the girl’s gonna kill you

Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you
Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you
Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you
Oh, yes, the girl’s gonna, she’s gonna
Hmm, oh no! The girl’s gonna kill you (etc)
