Gentlemen Aren't Nice

Once upon a time I thought "What's the one thing I haven't got?" There's not a single thing in this world I couldn't buy That's when a gentleman caught my eye Once or twice we went around But now I'll tell you the thing I've found You shouldn't make your move until you know the price Because gentlemen aren't nice Just because I won't agree to take his arm And I occasionally forget his name He likes to call inclemency what I call charm But I know they're all the same I think I've realized my first mistake When he cried that his heart would break I would have thought that I was worth the sacrifice But gentlemen aren't nice Just because I leave him all alone for days And go about with others of his kind He dares complain about my evil ways And drive me out of my -- out of my mind What I relate is hard to bear I only endure it so that I might spare you ladies I'm not known for my good advice But gentlemen aren't So agreeable Love ain't a paradise And if I told you once, I won't tell you twice Gentlemen aren't nice Gentlemen aren't nice
