Bad News To Fall In Love (With A Mean Motherfucker) (G. Kooymans/B. Hay/
E. H. Roelfzema) 1999 Paradise In Distress

Don’t try to put the blame on me, every night I come stealin’ home
You keep thinkin’, I’ve been drinkin’, I been missin’ you
Damn sheriff ain’t no friend of mine, hand-cuffin’ my good times
Got no pity, show no mercy, sure make me think of you, he’s so uptight
Downtown, can’t get enough of the way I pay for love
‘Cause I’m ready, I got plenty, who’s complainin’ when there’s more than enough
A deck of cards and a pair of dice, make me feel twice as nice
The wheel’s spinnin’, I’m winnin’, till I walk through the door, like I said before

It’s bad news to fall in love, it’s bad news to fall in love
It’s bad news to fall in love with a mean motherfucker

Half dead till the afternoon, wake up feelin’ cruel
You don’t get it, I just said it, pour the booze and fetch my silver spoon
Don’t mind bein’ critical, this love thing’s pitiful
Why don’t you let it fade and forget it
I’m bad news for a girl like you and I’m warnin’ you

It’s bad news to fall in love, it’s bad news to fall in love
It’s bad news to fall in love with a mean motherfucker, with a mean motherfucker

I don’t mind bein’ critical, this love thing’s pitiful
Why don’t you let it fade and forget it
I’m bad news for a girl like you and I’m warnin’ you

Bad news to fall in love, bad news to fall in love
It’s bad news to fall in love with a mean motherfucker, with a mean motherfucker
With a mean motherfucker, with a mean motherfucker

It’s bad news to fall in love, it’s bad news to fall in love
It’s bad news to fall in love with a mean motherfucker, with a mean motherfucker…
