[Verse 1]
Why are my hands bleedin'? I think I know why
I been holdin' on to the words from your every lie, why?

[Refrain]
Fool me once, shame on you, baby
Fool me twice
Should have known that there would be problems
Girl, with you
But I thought

[Pre-Chorus]
You were different (Ah!), my baby (Hey!)
Now I see you're just like the rest (Yeah!)
Thought you were different (Ah!), my baby (Hey!)
You've become my biggest regret

[Chorus]
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype-y-y-ype ('Y-Y-Ype)
Stereotype, stere-stereotype
Stereotype, stere-stereotype
Stereotype, stere-stereotype
Stereotype, stere-stere-ere-ere-o
[Verse 2]
Can't blame you, you were only bein' yourself
I fell in love with someone that I barely knew, why?

[Refrain]
Fool me once, shame on you, baby
Fool me twice
Should have known that there would be problems
Girl, with you
But I thought

[Pre-Chorus]
You were different (Ah!), my baby (Yeah!)
Now I see you're just like the rest (Yeah!)
Thought you were different (Ah!), my baby (Yeah!)
You've become my biggest regret (Yeah)

[Chorus]
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
(Stereotype, stere-stereotype)
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
(Stereotype, stere-stereotype)
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
(Stereotype, stere-stereotype, yeah)
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype-y-y-ype ('Y-Y-Ype)
(Stereotype, stere-stere-ere-ere-o)
[Bridge]
Stere-stere-stereo, stere-stereo
Girl, you ain't nothin' but a stereo
Nothin' but a stereo
Stereotype, stere-stereotype, ah
Stereotype, that's that stereo-o-o-o-o

[Pre-Chorus]
You were different (Ah!), my baby (Yeah!)
Now I see you're just like the rest (Yeah!)
Thought you were different (Ah!), my baby (Yeah!)
You've become my biggest regret (Yeah-yeah)

[Chorus]
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
(Stereotype, stere-stereotype)
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
(Stereotype, stere-stereotype)
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype
(Stereotype, stere-stereotype, yeah)
I'd really hate to label you a stereotype-y-y-ype ('Y-Y-Ype)
(Stereotype, stere-stere-ere-ere-o)
