Josie and the Pussycats - Pretend to Be Nice Lyrics
Well he looks at me with those innocent eyes
And says it looks like you're wearing some kinda disguise
Because your hair sticks up
Your shoes are untied
I hope that you got that shirt at half price
And every word i say falls flat on the floor
I try to tell a joke, he's heard it before
And i dont think that i can take it no more
He's driving me right out my front door
(chorus)Why do you do what you do to me baby?
Shakin' my confidence, driving me crazy
You know if I could, I'd do anything for you,
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you
Can't you just pretend to be nice, can you at least pretend to be nice
If you could just pretend to be nice, everything in my life would be alright
And I try so hard just to figure him out
But he won't tell me what he's been thinkin' about
And then he falls asleep on the living room couch
With his sunglasses on, his tongue hanging out
Then he disappears for a week at a time
And then he shows up just like everything's fine
And I don't get what goes on in his mind
But I'm tired of hearing the same stupid lines
(chorus)Why do you do what you do to me baby?
Shakin' my confidence, driving me crazy
You know if I could I'd do anything for you
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you
Can't you just pretend to be nice, can you at least pretend to be nice
If you could just pretend to be nice, everything in my life would be alright
Why do you do what you do to me baby?
Shakin' my confidence, driving me crazy
You know if I could I'd do anything for you
I don't mean to bore you 'cause you know I adore you
Can't you just pretend to be nice? Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice
Then everything in my life would be all right, all right (repeated over)
