If you want 
Something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
'Cause baby, baby my time 
Is much too expensive
I don't want no little boy

But, if you, if you are serious
Don't go playin' with my heart 
It makes me furious
And if you want me to love you
Oooooooh, baby, I will 
Oooooooh, yeah, I will

Tell it like it is
Oooooooh, yeah
Let your conscience be your guide
But you know deep down inside me 
I believe you love me
Just forget your foolish pride

I think life too short for all this sorrow
We might be here today, gone tomorrow
I might as well just get what I want
I wanna live
I wanna live

Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed now 
Let you conscience be your guide
Oooooooh, yeah
Deep down inside me 
I believe you love me
Just forget your foolish pride
Ooooooooooh

---- Instrumental Interlude ----

Tell it like it is
Ooooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Let you conscience be your guide
Oooooh, oooooh
Tell it to me, baby
Baby, baby
I believe you love me
Just forget your foolish pride
Ooooo, tell it like it is
Oooooh, yeah, yeah
Tell it to me, baby
Tell it to me 
You're gonna tell it to right now
Yeah, yeah
Tell it like it is
