The Real Tuesday Weld
Promises Promises
[Verse 1]
Don't promise me your love, I don't need it
Don't swear I'm all you want, I don't believe it
You think I'm quite a prize
Considerate and wise
Well, consider this advice: beat it
[Verse 2]
Why does every man I meet think they can sway me?
Believe that they're unique, the one to save me?
They vow they'll win me 'round
Every single one's a clown
Build me up, I'll burn 'em down
[Bridge]
You say you know my true feelings
But if you did you wouldn't be there kneeling
You say I don't know love tortures
You know shit, I've been hung, drawn, and quartered
[Verse 3]
Go find yourself some other lover
A sweet and trusting type, just like your mother
But if you wish, my dear, to take a risk, my dear
With promises, well, here's another:
"I'll make you pay the price for all the cheatin', all the lies
And every promise I once believed in"
