Think Twice Lyrics

(intro sample:)
How dare you? How dare you say such filthy, disgusting things? You filthy upstart! You come into the house, drunk, filthy drunk, you're filthy. You talk filth, you are the filth

Oh, you tell me you feel changed, /
So you're packing up and leaving me, /
And you've met some other girl, /
Whose love can set you free. /

Think twice, / baby, /
Think twice, / baby, /
Think twice, / baby, /
Don't turn / your back / on the love / you've known, / ooh, no. /

If I could turn back the hands of time, /
I'd build a love strong enough for two. /
No, I won't deny I've lied, /
But the trouble with me is you. /

Think twice, / baby, /
Think twice, / baby, /
Think twice, / baby, /
Don't turn / your back / on the love / you've known, / ooh, no. /

Oh, take some time to grow, /
You've only known her a week or two. /
Use your head, not just your heart, /
When you tell me that we're through. /
Think twice, / baby, /
Think twice, / baby, /
Think twice, / baby, /
Don't turn / your back / on the love / you've known, / ooh, no. /

Think twice before you leave, /
That's my advice, / baby, / baby, / baby. /
Don't keep love in waiting, / baby, baby
