You Took Advantage of Me |
| I’m a sentimental sap, that’s all |
| What’s the use of trying not to fall? |
| I have no will, you’ve made your kill |
| 'Cause you took advantage of me |
| I’m just like an apple on a bough |
| And you’re gonna shake me down somehow |
| But what’s the use, you’ve cooked my goose |
| 'Cause you took advantage of me |
| I’m so hot and bothered that I don’t know |
| My elbow from my ear |
| I suffer something awful each time you go |
| It’s much worse when you’re near |
| Here am I with all my bridges burned |
| Just a babe in arms where you’re concerned |
| So lock the doors and call me yours |
| 'Cause you took advantage of me |
| I have no will, you’ve made your kill |
| 'Cause you took advantage of me |
| Tell me what’s the use? |
| You’ve cooked my goose |
| 'Cause you took advantge of me |
| Say I’m so hot and bothered that I don’t know |
| My elbow from my ear |
| I suffer something awful each time you go |
| It’s much worse when you’re near |
| Here am I with all my bridges burned |
| Just a babe in arms where you’re concerned |
| So lock the doors and call me yours |
| You took advantage of poor little me |
