Victim |
| When I started out |
| It was just a matter of seeing you every day |
| I looked forward to the times |
| When you would come my way, oh yes |
| I longed just to see you |
| Wore a smile just to greet you |
| I’m a victim of the very song I sing |
| You gave me a brand new reason |
| To start fixing up my face |
| Having cocktails at your favorite place |
| A table just for two |
| Got rid of loneliness, now that I have you |
| I became a victim of the very song I sing |
| I told you young hearts run free |
| When I didn’t listen to myself |
| Engulfed by the power of love |
| I just fell right in, right on in |
| Wasn’t hardly worried about tomorrow |
| You’re the future |
| As long as I was being satisfied |
| I didn’t need nothing else |
| And now already, I’m being left at home |
| I wonder what it is |
| That makes a man leave a girl so alone |
| Another woman is the thing |
| Running around, it just don’t seem to change |
| Victim, victim, victim, victim |
| I’m a victim of the very song I sing |
| Why don’t you practice what you preach |
| That’s what everybody’s telling me |
| If my advice is good for others |
| It’s got to be good for me |
| So I try to occupy my mind |
| Keep myself busy all the time |
| But the more I try to do |
| The more I keep thinking of you |
| Oh well, I guess I’ll end up in the lost and found |
| Looks like love and me |
| We done fought another round |
| Another woman is his claim to fame |
| And I’m lucky if I can break these chains |
| Victim… |
| Help me sing do do wap, oh oh do do wap |
