Verse 1:
Well he looks at me
with those innocent eyes
And says it looks like you're
wearing some kind of disguise
Because your hair sticks up
your shoes are untied
I hope that you got that
shirt on half price
And every word I say falls
flat on the floor
I try to tell a joke
he's heard it before
And I don't think that
I can take it no more
He's driving me right
out of my front door
Refrain:
Why do you do what
you do to me baby
You're shaking my
confidence driving me crazy
You know if I could I'd
do anything for you
Please don't ignore me
cause you know I adore you
Chorus 1:
But can't you just pretend to be nice
Can you at least pretend to be nice
If you could just pretend to be nice
Then everything in my
life would be alright
Post Chorus:

Oooh wee....

Verse 2:
And I try so hard just to figure him out
But he won't tell me what he's thinking about
And then he falls asleep on the living room couch
With his sunglasses on and his tongue hanging out
And then he disappears for a week at a time
And then he shows up just like everything's fine
And I don't get what goes on in his mind
But I'm tired of hearing the same stupid lines
(Repeat Refrain and Chorus)
(Repeat Post Chorus)

You're shaking my confidence driving me crazy
You know if I could I'd do anything for you
I don't mean to bore you cause you know I adore you
But can't you just pretend to be nice
