"You Neglect Me" lyrics

"You Neglect Me"

Mmm-mmm, hmm-hmm-hmm

You neglect me
Oh, and yet you still expect me
To come running when you call
(Running when you call)
Baby, you neglect me
And yet you still expect me
To give you my all and all
(Give you my all and all)
Hey, yeah, yeah

You're confident that I'll be waiting here forever
You think you've got such a hold on me 'til I could leave you never
And I'll just sit around while you paint the town

Baby, baby, you neglect me
Mmm, and yet you still expect me
To hang around like a picture you hang
(Around like a picture you hang)
Baby, baby, baby, you reject me, yeah
And yet you still expect me
To come back to you like a boomerang
(Come back to you like a boomerang)

Ooh, you better wake up to the facts of life (Wake up, wake up)
And stop cheatin' around (Wake up, wake up)
'Cause today, I may be weak for you
But tomorrow, I might be strong
You better save this romance while there's still a chance

Mmm-hmm
Oh yeah
Mmm, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh

Maybe one day, you'll lose me (One day, one day)
And I'll leave the hurt behind (One day, one day)
You've done me wrong for oh so long
Maybe somebody right will find me
Finders keepers, losers weepers

Huh, you neglect me
And yet you still expect me
To come running when you call, oh
Baby, you neglect me
And yet you still expect me
To give you my all and all
Ooh-ooh, you neglect me
