I Should Know Better Songtext
von Mark Selby

Let′s call it a crime of passion
Say I didn't quite use my head
Set off a little chain reaction
Started with a losing bet

Bad idea
That′s a real bad idea

I fell for that black-eyed Betty
You know what I'm talkin' ′bout
She rocked me slow and steady
Well, hush my mouth

Well, that′s a bad idea
I'm talkin′ a real bad idea
I should know better, uh-huh

That's right

She led me like a bed of honey
She stung me like a honey bee
You know the story ′bout the fool and money
Ain't no money left on me
Ain′t no money left on me


Well, that's a bad idea, uh-huh
I'm talkin′ a real bad idea
I should know better, uh-huh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I should know better

Hey boys, I seen you lookin′
Can't help but lick your lips
Wanna taste what she′s got cookin'
And you want it quick
Yeah, you want it quick

Well, that′s a bad idea (Bad idea)
Take it from me, that's a real bad idea
Real bad idea
Oh yeah, real bad idea
All together now
I should know better, uh-huh

I know better, should know better
Oughta know better than that, mm


I′m a full-grown man
Way past twenty-one
Oughta know a little better
Than to have a little too much fun
I know better, should know better, uh-huh
I know better, should know better
I know better, should know better
Well, I know better, should know better
Really oughta, really oughta know a little better
Well, I should know better, oughta know better
Really oughta, really oughta know a little better
Ooh, I know better, should know better
Ooh, I know better, should know better
Ooh, I know better, should know better
Ooh, I know better, should know
