REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY Reverse psychology Doesn't work on me It works my nerves But I think logically So don't rehearse what you're gonna say I like it better the spontaneous way You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it? VERSE: Games are good for attention But in the end they let you down Hold me back or let me go But no more middle ground Boy, you've got to play your cards right Get on back to the basics of love We don't need no mindless mind games A little give and take - push and shove - A little honesty is what I'm in need of! Don't you know I've seen it all Though I seem naive to you Hit me with anything at all Just hit me with the truth - yeah! You keep thinking one of these days you'll Push my back against the wall It's too late for tricks of the trade now I can escape anything at all - oh! A little push and shove - give and take - But I won't fall! CHORUS Why wait till something better comes along? Why not stay steady and strong? A silver lining cannot be far away You'll get much further if you Do what you mean and mean what you say 1-2-3-I said..... CHORUS
