Mistake Number 1

(álbum: Powerful Stuff - 1989)

Understanding is the best thing in the world
But payback hurts
I didn't get an understanding woman
So how could it work
And that was mistake number one

You didn't want, you didn't want to hold me
You just want to shake me, shake me
Shake me, 'til there's nothing in my pants
Thought I was your money tree, ooh...

In my life, I made a lot of mistakes
To count them would be a ton
But when I fell in love, in love with you
That was mistake number one, yeah

Mistake number one
Mistake number one
Mistake number one
Mistake number one

Worked two jobs while you sat at home
Still, it wasn't clean
It takes a fool to love somebody
Who treats 'em so mean
But when I fell in love, in love with you
That was mistake number one, yeah

Understanding is the best thing in the world
But payback hurts
I didn't get an understanding woman
So how could it work

In my life, I made a lot of mistakes
To count them would be a ton
But when I fell in love, in love with you
That was mistake number one
It was mistake number one
Mistake number one, yeah

Mistake number one
Mistake number one
It was mistake number one

Mistake number one
Mistake number one
It was mistake number one

Mistake number one
Mistake number one
It was mistake number one
