Tell It Like It Is lyrics

If you want something to play with

go and find yourself a toy.

Baby, my time is too expensive

and I'm not a little boy.

If you are serious

don't play with my heart,

it makes me furious.

But if you want me to love you

then, a-baby, I will,

girl, you know that I will.

Tell it like it is,

don't be ashamed

to let your conscience be your guide.

But I know deep down inside me

I believe you love me,

forget your foolish pride.

Life is too short to have sorrow.

You may be here today and gone tomorrow.

You might as well get what you want,

so go on and live,

baby go on and live.

Tell it like it is,

I'm nothing to play with.

Go and find yourself a toy.

But I...

Tell it like it is.

My time is too expensive

and I'm not your little boy.
