I don't want to be your fool forever I don't want to be your backdoor man I ain't much of a forgiver forgetter I've had about as much of this as I can stand Tilt the bottle way back Don't be such a sad sack I don't want to hear the words now or never Sell me something real I know what I have to do I know what I want to do I've nailed the coffin closed I'm giving up the ghost I can hear 'em saying that I should have known better You walked all over me I took it all in stride They say 'the courage of the coward's greater than any other' So watch your back baby and step aside Got you where I want you now Love ain't what it's all about I don't want to hear the words now or never Sell me something real I know what I have to do I know what I want to do
