Josie & The Pussycats Pretend To Be Nice Lyrics

Pretend To Be Nice lyrics

Well he looks at me with those innocent eyes,
And says "It looks like you're wearing some kind of disguise,
Because your hair sticks up and your shoes are untied,
And I hope you got that shirt at half price,
And every word I say falls flat on the floor,
I try to tell a joke; he's heard it before,
And I don't think I can take it no more,
Cause he's driving me right out of my front door,

Why do you do what you do to me baby;
You're shaking my confidence, driving me crazy,
You know if I could I'd do anything for you,
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you,

Can't you just pretend to be nice?
Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice,
Everything in my life would be alright.

Oooh wee....
Oooh wee....

And I try so hard just to figure him out,
But he won't tell me what he's been thinking about,
And then he falls asleep on the living room couch,
With his sunglasses on and his tongue hanging out,
And then he disappears for a week at a time,
And then he just shows up just like everything's fine,
And I don't get what goes on in his mind,
But I'm tired of hearing the same stupid lines,

Why do you do what you do to me baby;
You're shaking my confidence, driving me crazy,
You know if I could I'd do anything for you,
I don't mean to bore you cause you know I adore you,

But can't you just pretend to be nice?
Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice,
Everything in my life would be alright.

Oooh wee....
Oooh wee....

(Guitar solo)

Why do you do what you do to me baby,
You're shaking my confidence, driving me crazy,
You know if I could I'd do anything for you,
I don't mean to bore you cause you know I adore you

Can't you just pretend to be nice?
Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice,
Everything in my life would be alright.

Oooh wee...
Oooh wee...

Can't you just pretend to be nice?
Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice
Everything in my life would be alright alright (x2)
