Girlfriend

To believe

Or not to believe

That is the question

It just takes a street degree

You've lied your last lie

And i've cried my last cry

I'm out the door, babe

There's other fish in the sea



Girl, make a list

Go out and find yourself a new bad thing

Girl, you need a trip

'cause he's not worth the misery and pain

Just remember how he would tell you lies

And then pretend that everything is so sweet

Why should you sacrifice

If you're not satisfied

He's just a canine runnin' 'round in heat



Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad, oh

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh

Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad, oh

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh



Girl, you must resist

Don't let him squirm his way into your heart

No, girl, i must insist

You've got to stop the fool before he starts

Just remember how he was so untrue

With all the tacky things he did to you

No need to signify

'cause he's not worth your time

You need to find someone that's true to you



Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad, oh

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh

Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad (baby don't be sad, no)

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh



To believe

Or not to believe

That is the question

It just takes a street degree

You've lied your last lie

And i've cried my last cry

I'm out the door, babe

There's other fish in the sea



Cute (cute, cute, cute)



Hey deele - sing



To believe

Or not to believe

That is the question

It just takes a street degree

You've lied your last lie

And i've cried my last cry

I'm out the door, babe

There's other fish in the sea



Girlfriend how could you let him treat you so bad

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had



Hook



Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad, oh

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh

Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad (baby don't be sad, no)

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh



Don't let him put you down

Girl, he's been messing around

You've been used, abused

Baby, make your move

You've learned your lesson now

So turn this hurt around

You ain't no fool, 'cause you've got to bust loose



Girlfriend

How could you let him treat you so bad, oh

Girlfriend

You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh



Don't let him put you down

Girl, he's been messing around

You've been used, abused

Baby, make your move

You've learned your lesson now

So turn this hurt around

Don't be no fool, 'cause you've got to bust loose
