Be For Real With Me

(альбом: The Mighty Mighty Dells - 1974)

Ay, ya, ya, be for real with me
Ay, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

You can't keep placing me
On and off the shelf
Your lips say you love me
But your eyes says something else
You're having so much fun
On your merry go round
But I'm tired of you using
My heart for a playground

Baby, I'm a man
I want to be treated like one
I'm beginning to see
Where you're coming from

Ay, ya, ya, be for real with me
Ay, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

A lie can only live
Oh, for just so long
But it has a time
Cause the truth is just so strong
Don't keep your feelings
Hidden in the dark
Cause I got to know
If I'm still in your heart

Baby you used me
So many times before
But that's all over
I'm not going to be a fool no more

Ay, ya, ya, be for real with me
Oh, why can't you be for real with me?

Before you start looking
For your next man
You better think twice
Before you make me your ex man
A house that's built on lies
Will only fall down
You better get it together
If you want me around
Oh!

Lay your cards
On the table, Girl
Try to be true
To liven my world
No more can I let you
String me along
My eyes are wide open
To what's going on

Baby, I'm a man
I want to be treated like one
I'm beginning to see
Where you're coming from

Ay, ya, ya, be for real with me
Oh, why can't you be for real with me?
I want the real deal
I got to have it now
I want the real deal (Real deal)
I got to have it now
Oh, oh, oh, ah huh
Oh, why can't you be for real with me?
Oh, why can't you be
Oh, why can't you be
Oh, why can't you be for real with me?
