I Trained Her to Love Me
Do you see the way she lights up when I walk in the room
-that's good-
And the skip in her step when we're both out walking in the neighborhood
This one's almost done now to watch her fall apart
I trained her to love me so I can go ahead and break her heart
If you think that it's depraved and I should be ashamed
-so what-
I'm only paying back womankind for all the grief I've got
I've got the latest believing, for ever I'll be true
I trained her to love me, now excuse me, I got work to do
I trained her to love me
And I'm gonna start working on another after this
And when I got that one in a state of bliss
Betray her with a kiss
Well one time, one cut up rough and said I only do this cause I can
Mmmmmmm
And I'm bound to wind up one lonely twisted old man
But look out here comes a prime contender for my agenda
If ever there was one and I'm gonna train her to love me until it's time to do what must be done
I trained her to love me
And I'm gonna start working on another after this and when I got that one in a state of bliss
Betray her with a kiss
