Words like love & happiness
Never seem to stand up baby
When you put 'em to the test, yea
You say that you're a poet,
That your life's a work of art
But you can't play love by numbers baby
Gotta play it all by heart
Baby Baby Baby Baby
It happens all the time
How you play me, play me, play me
Playing with my mind
Baby Baby Baby Baby
You're making me go crazy
If you call that love, love should be a crime
Honesty bites the dust
Everytime I hear you saying love is never lust, yea
Did you read it in a book
Did you see it in a magazine
Do you think that I'm some new age fool
Do you think I'm so naive
Baby Baby Baby Baby
It happens all the time
How you play me, play me, play me
Playing with my mind
Baby Baby Baby Baby
You're making me go crazy
If you call that love, love should be a crime
You and me, suddenly
We got nothing to say (We got nothing to say)
But the words get in the way
Baby Baby Baby Baby
It happens all the time
How you play me, play me, play me
Playing with my mind
Baby Baby Baby Baby
You're making me go crazy
And if you call that love
Then all it was was a pocket full of nothing but a suicidal love
If you call that love, then love should be a... crime
