Don't Tell Me
Avril Lavigne · Musical Bases [2005]
You held my hand and walked me home
I know why you gave me that kiss
It was something like this and made me go oh, oh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears
Why did you have to go? (Have to go)
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love
Guys are so hard to trust
PRE-CHORUS
Did I not I tell you that I'm not like
That girl the one who gives it all away
Yeah, oh-h
CHORUS
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
You're better off that way, yeah
Don't think that your charm
And the fact that your arm is now around my neck
Will get you in my pants now I'll have to kick your ass
And make you never forget (never forget)
I'm gonna ask you to stop I thought I liked you a lot
But I'm really upset (I'm really upset)
Get out of my head, get off of my bed
Yeah, that's what I said
PRE-CHORUS
Did I not I tell you that I'm not like
That girl the one who gives it all away
Yeah, oh-h
CHORUS
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
You're better off that way, yeah
This guilt trip that you put me on
Won't mess me up, I've done no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away
CHORUS
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
You're better off that way, yeah
Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway
I know why you gave me that kiss
It was something like this and made me go oh, oh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears
Why did you have to go? (Have to go)
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love
