Beating Around the Bush

Smilin' face and lovin' eyes
 But ya keep on telling me all those lies
 How do you expect me to believe
 Honey I ain't that naive
 Baby, I got my eye on you
 But you do all the things you wanted to
 Stop your crying and dry your tears
 I ain't that wet behind the ears
 You can throw me lefts
 And you can throw me rights
 But where was you last night?
 Beatin' around the bush
 Wish I knew what's on your mind
 Why you're being so unkind?
 Remember those nights you spent alone
 Talking on the telephone?
 Thoughts of you go through my brain
 You told me that you felt the same
 You said that you love me too
 Tell me who was there with you
 I was talking birds
 And you was talking bees
 And was he down upon his knees

 ♪
 You're the meanest woman I've ever known
 Sticks and stones won't break my bones
 I know what you're looking for
 You've eaten your cake, you want some more
 I'm gonna give you just a one more chance
 Try to save our romance
 I've done everythin' I'm gonna do
 The rest is up to you
 You can chew it up
 And you can spit it out
 Let it all hang out
 Beating around the bush
 Oh
 Chew it up
 Spit it out
 Let it all hang out
