Babyface
Don’t Be Cruel (The Rapacious Edit)
[Verse 1]
Girl, the only thing that matters in my life
Is that I'm down for you and treat you right
You've got no 'cause to treat me cold as ice

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, girl
As long as I've been giving my love to you
You should be giving me your love too, oh
But you just keep on actin' just like a fool
You know it ain't cool

[Chorus]
Don't be cruel
'Cause I would never be that cruel to you
A no, oh, a-no
Don't be cruel
Girl, you need to change your attitude
A-no, oh
Don't be cruel

[Verse 2]
Hey cutie, what's up with this attitude?
I thought I was being real good to you
I treat you sweet, take you out at night
But you never say thanks, girl, that ain't right
I bought you diamonds even gave you pearls
I took you for a cruise all around thе world
I treat you high post, but you play me close
And if I put a drink up, you won't еven toast
[Verse 3]
Girl, I work so hard for you from 9 to 5
So you could have the finer things in life
Since you're the kind that's never satisfied

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, girl
As long as I've been giving my heart to you
You should be giving me your heart too
But you just keep on actin' just like a fool
You know it ain't cool

[Chorus]
Don't be cruel
'Cause I would never be that cruel to you
A-no, oh, a-no
Don't be cruel
Girl, you need to change your attitude
A-no, oh

[Verse 4]
We used to hang out tough
Just kickin' around
We discovered a love that had never been found
You gave me your heart, I gave you my mind
But a true love affair we could never find
Although I want you bad, I could let you go
'Cause there's a lot of girls out there that won't say no
Roll to the fact that I want you, Jackie
I want you more than human eyes can see
But you had to start illin', tryin' to make a killin'
Though about the dollars I make, and you were willin'
To be with me, Bobby B
But with a bad attitude I can't compete
Now you know my name, now I know your game
You wanna be with me, you gotta be the same
Way that another girl would be
And if you wanna be with me
[Chorus]
Don't be cruel
(Don't be, don't be)
'Cause I would never be that cruel to you
(Don't be, don't be, baby)
A-no, oh, a-no
Don't be cruel
(Don't be, don't be)
Girl, you need to change your attitude
A-no, oh (Oh, oh, oh)
Don't be cruel
(Don't be, don't be)
'Cause I would never be that cruel to you
(Don't be, don't be, baby)
A-no, oh, a-no
Don't be cruel
(Don't be, don't be)
Girl, you need to change your attitude
