Lyrics for Song: Friends' Advice (Don't Take It)
Lyrics for Album: Right Rhythm [1990]
Uh huh
Uh huh
They tell you he's not right for you
Don't they think you know that, too?
I know that he's not playing fair
I've known it for years, well I'm still here
So do you think that I care?
They say go out and have some fun
Go out, they say, with other men
That sounds like a simple task
But what do you do when no one asks
Do you go out with his best friend?
When it comes to friends' advice
The following usually apples
Listen to it
Sort it through it
Contemplate it
But don't take it, no no
Don't take it, no no
After a month, I was tired of staying at home
I looked great, but so what? I was alone
See, the last time I listened to my friend
I saw one of them walking down the street
With my ex-man
I know he is a naughty boy (uh huh)
And that's exactly what I enjoy
My friends could never ever handle him
Which is the reason they don't understand
Oh, no
When it comes to friends' advice (oh)
The following usually applies (oh)
Listen to it (yeah)
Sort it through it
Contemplate it
But don't take it (no no, don't you dare don't)
Don't take it
My friends are trying to save my sanity (sanity)
I really do hear what they're telling me, oh, oh
It's just too hard to take them seriously (seriously)
Cause girlfriends, they don't practice what they preach
One of them's going with Jack the Ripper
One of them's got a snob
One never gets taken out to dinner
One of them's got slob
One of them's got the bore of the year
Another one's got a fool
One's got a man that don't even care
The other has one who's still in high school
The rest are alone
Listen to it
Sort it through it
Oh, when you know you got to
Listen to it
Sort it through it
Hey, you know you better
Listen to it (yeah)
Sought it through it (oh)
Contemplate it
But don't take it (well, well)
Yeah, yeah
Don't take it (come on)
Listen to it
Sort it through it (yeah, yeah)
Contemplate it
But don't take it (don't you dare don't)
