I know I should get next to you

You got a look that makes me think you're cool

But it's just sexual attraction

Not something real so I'd rather keep whackin' Why bother? It's gonna hurt me

It's gonna kill when you desert me

This happened to me twice before

It won't happen to me anymore I've known a lot of girls before

What's the harm in knowin' one more?

Maybe we could even get together

Maybe you could break my heart next summer Why bother? It's gonna hurt me

It's gonna kill when you desert me

This happened to me twice before

It won't happen to me anymore It's a cryin' shame I'm all alone

Not with you, nor her, nor anyone

Won't you knock me on my head?

Crack it open let me outta here Why bother? It's gonna hurt me

It's gonna kill when you desert me

This happened to me twice before

It won't happen to me anymore Why bother? It's gonna hurt me

It's gonna kill when you desert me

Why bother? It's gonna hurt me

Why bother? It's gonna hurt me
