Lyrics

Mind if I sit down?Can I buy you a round?Haven’t seen your face beforeAre you new in town?It’s the same old lieOh, every timeAre you here alone?Can I take you home?
Now every woman sees with every “pretty please”That there’s a pair of lyin’ eyes and a set of keysHe says come be a star in the back seat of my carOh, but baby, slow downYou’re goin’ way too fast
Let me make it clear to you my dearIf you’re not in it for loveIf you’re not willin’ to give it all you’ve gotIf you’re not in it for lifeIf you’re not in it for loveLet me make it clear to you my dearIf you’re not in it for love, I’m outta here! (Woo!)
“Babe, I can change your worldMake you a cover girlYeah, you could be a beauty queen in a magazine”“Now tell me, what’s your sign?” (Baby boy)Why always the same old lie?“I’ll be number 409 if you change your mind”
Let me make it clear to you my dearIf you’re not in it for loveIf you’re not willin’ to give it all you gotIf you’re not in it for lifeIf you’re not in it for loveLet me make it clear to you my dearYou’re not in it for love, oh
If you’re not in it for lifeIf you’re not in it for loveIf you’re not in it for lifeIf you’re not in it for love, oohI’m outta here!
Hah
