BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
Writers: Holly Knight/ Mike Chapman
A prisoner of your love
entangled in your web
hot whispers in the night
I’m captured by your spell
Oh yes I’m touched by this show of emotion
Should I be fractured by your lack of devotion
Should I should I
Oh you better be good to me
That’s how it’s gotta be now
Cause I don’t have no use
for what you losely call the truth
You better be good to me
And I think it’s oh so right
That we don’t need to fight
When we stand face to face
and you present your case
and I know you keep telling me that you love me
and I really do wanna believe
but did you think I’d just accept you in blind faith
Oh sure babe, anything to please you
But you better be good to me
That’s how it’s gotta be now
Cause I don’t have the time
For your over loaded lines
and I don’t have no use
for what you loosely call the truth
You better be good to me
And I really don’t see why it’s so hard to be
Good to me
And I don’t understand what’s your plan
that you can’t be good to me
What I can’t feel I surely cannot see why can’t you be
Good to me
If it is not real I do not wish to see why can’t you be
Good to me
Oh you better be good to me
That’s how it’s gotta be now
Cause I don’t have no use
for what you losely call the truth
You better be good to me
