Troubletones:
Oooh-oh
Oooh-oh
Oooh-oh
Oooh-oh
Mercedes with the Troubletones harmonizing:
She, she ain't real
She ain't gon' be able to love you like I will
She is a stranger,
You and I have history,
Or don't you remember?
Sure, she's got it all,
But baby is that really what you want?
Bless your soul, you've got your head in the clouds,
You made a fool out of you,
And, boy, she's bringing you down,
She made your heart melt,
But you're cold to the core,
Now rumour has it she ain't got your love anymore,
